Multilingual Education & Multilingual Learner Resources

The primary purpose of the Multilingual Education & Multilingual Learner Resources page is to assist educators, school district leaders and educational partners in the implementation of programs that support multilingual learners in accessing and benefiting from a world-class, well-rounded and equitable education system.

"Together, we are weaving a vibrant tapestry of cultures and languages, strengthening our communities, and enriching the lives of every Oregonian. Our commitment to transforming education for our multilingual learners is a testament to the power of diversity and inclusion. By removing barriers and supporting our students' aspirations, we honor their heritage and pave the way for a brighter, more equitable future. Let us unite in this journey of transformation, ensuring every learner's unique voice and identity are celebrated, seen, and loved. Every Oregonian has a role in embracing multilingual education, making our schools and communities stronger for each and every student.”

~Carmen Xiomara Urbina, Deputy Director of the Oregon Department of Education (2018–2024) & Dr. Charlene Williams, Director of the Oregon Department of Education
