What was the primary aim of Proposition 227 of 1998 regarding language instruction in California public schools?

End bilingual education and require sheltered English instruction

Prop 227 aimed to shift English learners toward English-only instruction by ending most bilingual education and replacing it with sheltered English immersion. It required that students be taught in English for about a year, with options for parents to waive and keep bilingual approaches in limited circumstances. This emphasis on English immersion contrasts with expanding bilingual programs, mandating native-language only instruction, or funding language labs, which do not describe the main goal of the measure.

Expand bilingual education programs

Mandate native-language only instruction

Provide more funding for language labs
