A bill to amend the Higher Education Act of 1965 to direct the Secretary of Education to award institutions of higher education grants for teaching English learners.

Bill 118 s 4256, also known as the "Grant for Teaching English Learners Act," is a proposed amendment to the Higher Education Act of 1965. The purpose of this bill is to direct the Secretary of Education to provide grants to institutions of higher education for the purpose of teaching English learners.

The bill aims to address the needs of English learners in higher education by providing funding to institutions that offer programs and services specifically designed to support these students. By awarding grants to institutions, the Secretary of Education hopes to improve the educational outcomes and success rates of English learners in higher education.

If passed, this bill would require the Secretary of Education to establish criteria for awarding grants to institutions of higher education. These criteria would likely include factors such as the number of English learners served by the institution, the quality of the programs and services offered to English learners, and the institution's track record of supporting English learners. Overall, the Grant for Teaching English Learners Act seeks to address the unique needs of English learners in higher education and provide them with the support and resources necessary to succeed academically.
