The English–Language Arts Content Standards for California PublicSchools and the Reading/Language Arts Framework for CaliforniaPublic Schools, both adopted by the State Board of Education ,define what all students in California, including students learning English as a second language, are expected to know and be able to do. The English-language development (ELD) standards are designed to supplement the English–language arts content standards to ensure that limited-English proficient (LEP) students (now called English learners in California) develop proficiency in both the English language and the concepts and skills contained in the English–language arts content standards.
