The Emergent Bilingual Support Division supports the Texas Education Agency’s vision to improve outcomes for all students statewide and strives to lead the increase of achievement and equity of emergent bilingual students and their families. Together with leaders, educators, parents and families we can create an impact that reaches every part of the state.

The goal of the Texas Effective Dual Language Immersion Framework (TxEDLIF) is to provide a manageable instructional framework for LEAs grounded on dual language pedagogy to increase the effective implementation and sustainment of dual language immersion programs and impact student achievement. The Texas Effective Dual Language Immersion Framework consists of five levers with essential actions and key dual language immersion practices to describe what high-quality dual language programs do to support district commitments for schools. The TxEDLIF aims to provide districts, campuses, teachers, and parents statewide with the tools they may need to increase

• the effective implementation and sustainment of dual language immersion programs,
• the expansion of dual language immersion programs PK -12, and
• the impact on student outcomes.
