Home Language Survey
Home Language Survey
Massachusetts Department of Elementary and Secondary Education regulations require that all schools determine the language(s) spoken in each student’s home in order to identify their specific language needs. The information reported is essential for schools to provide meaningful instruction for all students. If a language other than English is spoken in the home, districts are required to collect additional data and assessment results.
