Clear Creek ISD outlines Title III help for students learning English
Summary
Clear Creek ISD federal programs explained Title III, Part A — a federal funding stream under ESSA — as supplemental support for emergent bilingual students, emphasizing language maintenance alongside English instruction and parental rights to language access and program choice.
Clear Creek Independent School District (CCISD) federal programs summarized how Title III, Part A of the Every Student Succeeds Act supports students who are learning English while taking the district's regular classes. A presenter with CCISD federal programs said the funds are meant to be "extra support" and to make sure students "get the specific help they need to succeed across every subject."
The presenter emphasized that Title III is designed to help students build English skills without replacing the bilingual or English-as-a-second-language programs Texas already requires. "Title 3 helps your child build English while keeping the language they already speak at home," the presenter said, underscoring that the program aims for both proficiency and language maintenance. CCISD said the district receives the federal funds and uses them under rules set by the Texas Education Agency.
