Bilingual Multicultural Education Annual Report for the School Year 2014-2015
Skandera, Hanna; Pelayo, Icela
New Mexico Public Education Department
The Bilingual Multicultural Education Bureau (BMEB) strives to serve all students participating in BMEPs so that all students achieve the determined program goals as outlined by New Mexico statute and education code, these are: (1) students become bilingual and biliterate in English and a second language; and (2) students meet all academic content standards and benchmarks in all subject areas. The purpose of the Bilingual Multicultural Education Annual Report is to comply with state statute and inform stakeholders regarding the BMEB's efforts and how these are connected to PED's current initiatives. The BMEB actively works to streamline and provide data that can be used in meaningful and purposeful ways and is committed to improving the quality of data and of reporting. To that aim, the report focuses on these key areas as follows: (1) Collects and reports data on district, school, and student participation; (2) Collects and reports data regarding language proficiency in order to assess progress on BMEP goal 1; (3) Analyzes and reports achievement data based on the Partnership for Assessment of Readiness for College and Careers (PARCC) tests and on the New Mexico Standards Based Assessment (SBA) for relevant subgroups, including English ELs, to assess progress on BMEP goal 2; and (4) Evaluates and determines program effectiveness and use of funds for BMEPs. This report addresses these key areas with data for the 2014-2015 school year, providing some longitudinal data for comparison over time. Not all data is uniform, and where this may factor into the interpretation of data results, it is noted.
