There is no official federal government office that oversees bilingual education. Each state department of education defines its own bilingual education needs and certifies teachers as it sees fit. For example, California may need many teachers to help with the 200 or so languages of its many students, but rural Wyoming may only need 2 or 3.
See the link here for which state offers ESL or bilingual certification. |
