Thanks Rich-
Rich and I are friends with some of the people at UH- good to look at their Center on ELs
also-

https://www.cselcenter.org/
If I remember correctly- Francis and his group developed the TELPAS and many of the other
accountability assessments used in Texas- likely one of the reasons they have such good
psychometric properties. The question that we need to be asking- is the EL overlap with
disability? And then- what does evidence- based practices look like for ELs with
disabilities? What does special education look like for ELs with disabilities? What does
inclusion look like for ELs with disabilities? What does positive behavior support look
like for Els with disabilities with EBD, dyslexia, autism, deaf and hard of hearing,
developmental and intellectual disabilities, etc. etc. etc- I am an EBD person- so most
interested in the EBD/mental health/PBIS overlap- but others should ask the same questions
depending on area.
