Data were obtained through interviews with key program personnel, reviews and analyses of program documents and computerized file data, responses to Compliance Checklists, and data from the Student Information Management and Evaluation System. The following results are highlighted: (1) the Vocational Support Services Program offered three instructional alternative models to 178 limited English speaking students during the 1990-91 school year; (2) all 32 New Instructional Model schools used Welcome Center test data in making English-as-a-Second-Language (ESOL) placement decisions; (3) Welcome Center test data were made available to students' subject content teachers; (4) 26 schools used translations of all form letters and report cards in the students' native languages; (5) 31 schools provided translators for non-English speaking parents at parent-educator meetings and conferences; and (6) six percent of kindergarten through fourth grade students were overage, five percent of kindergarten through eighth grade students were overage, and 42.5 percent of high school students were overage.
