Since TESOL's ESL Standards for Pre-K12 Students was originally published in 1997, the population of English language learners across the United States has increased substantially, and the passage of the No Child Left Behind Act (2001) has dramatically changed elementary and secondary education. To stay abreast of these developments, TESOL has revised its ESL student standards.

The published volume will be available by the end of March 2006. Members and ESL professionals will be able to purchase it through TESOL’s Web site, www.tesol.org.
