CR Part 154 Comprehensive ELL Education Plan (CEEP)
2024-2025 CEEP Reporting Updates
For the 2024-2025 school year, all NYS school districts are required to submit a Comprehensive ELL Education Plan (CEEP).
The CEEP has undergone significant revisions, which include updated questions, enhanced assurance pages, and prompts to upload supporting evidence. Additionally, districts are provided with space to elaborate on their responses to ensure thorough and accurate submissions.
To assist districts in completing the revised CEEP, a detailed Submission Guide has been provided. We strongly encourage districts to review this guide carefully, as it offers valuable insights and instructions to inform responses.
Furthermore, we have included a customizable template for an English Language Learner (ELL) Identification Standard Operating Procedure (SOP) Checklist. This checklist can be tailored by each district and used in response to Question 2 - Initial Identification of the Assurances section, which pertains to the ELL Identification Processes.
Please note that the completed CEEP, along with all required documentation, must be submitted to the 快猫成版视频 (SED) no later than Friday, December 20, 2024.

Commissioners Regulation Part 154 Reporting Requirements
As in previous years, all NYS school districts are required under Part 154 of the Commissioner鈥檚 Regulations (CR Part 154), to develop a CR Part 154 Comprehensive ELL Education Plan (CEEP) to meet the educational needs of English Language Learners (ELLs) (CR Part 154-2[b]).听
All districts must keep their completed CEEPs on file in the districts鈥 main office and make them available for review upon request by the 快猫成版视频 (快猫成版视频). 快猫成版视频 reserves the right to publish on its website the completed CR Part 154 CEEP. In addition, all school administrators must review the plan and keep a copy on file within the school building.听
The CEEP is divided into multiple sections in which school districts must outline how they are addressing the needs of their ELLs and describe their strategic plan for providing grade-appropriate, linguistically and academically rigorous instruction that will allow ELLs to meet the Next Generation Learning Standards in alignment with the expectations set forth in the New York State Blueprint for English Language Learner/Multilingual Learner Success.听When completing the CEEP it is recommended that districts familiarize themselves with the principles outlined in the Blueprint.
