Dear Colleagues:

I sincerely regret any inconvenience the postponement of this week’s National Conversations on English Learner Education may have caused you, and I want you to know my staff and I are working diligently to reschedule the meetings in New York City and Charlotte as soon as possible.  These meetings are extremely important to us and we hope you will be able to attend once we have set new dates.

I promise to keep you posted and share information with you as it becomes available.

Sincerely,

Rosalinda B. Barrera

Assistant Deputy Secretary

Director, Office of English Language Acquisition
