RETELL INITIATIVE
• In response to the Department of Justice letter citing the non-compliance of Massachusetts in preparing its teachers to work with English language learners in their classrooms, the DESE organized the Rethinking Equity in Teaching ELLs (RETELL)initiative.
• The goal of RETELL is to revise and improve educator preparation and PD for sheltered English immersion teachers to as to improve ELL outcomes.
• See the DESE slide handouts for more information.

SUMMARY OF PROPOSAL: SEI ENDORSEMENT REQUIREMENT
• There will be an SEI Teacher Endorsement for educator licensure, license renewal and advancement of a license for all core academic teachers.
• There will be an SEI Administrator Endorsement for all principals, assistant principals, and supervisors/directors who supervise above teachers.
• All teachers and administrators would have to obtain this endorsement by June 30, 2016.
• Title III funds will no longer be allowed to be used for this required training (supplementing vs. supplanting)

socio-cultural and socio-emotional issues.

CREDIT FOR CATEGORY TRAINING
• All category training must be completed as of June 30, 2012 (NOTE: Superintendents were sent a survey to find out whether it makes sense to extend that date until the end of August, 2012).
• We do not know whether or not the Department of Justice will allow “grandfathering” of these courses.
• There may be an SEI MTEL to determine whether or not teachers have met the skills and knowledge for the SEI endorsement.
• Questions not answered to date: who will teach these mandated courses? Who will fund this initiative? What does the syllabi for the course look like?
