Connecticut: classified-EL share over time
Annual share of public-school students classified as English Learners.
Methodology note
- Connecticut State Department of Education, October fall snapshot. EL/Multilingual-Learner identification under Conn. Gen. Stat. § 10-17 et seq.: home language survey followed by LAS Links Placement Test 2nd Edition. Denominator is K-12 public enrollment (57,533 of 508,402). Connecticut does not publish historical figures for fall 2018-2021, so methodological continuity with the prior NCES series cannot be confirmed from overlapping observations; the trajectory above NCES's fall 2021 figure (9.4%) is consistent with documented growth through 2024-25.

About this figure
Each point is the fall-enrollment share of students classified as English Learners in Connecticut's public schools. Observations through fall 2021 are drawn from the National Center for Education Statistics (NCES) Digest of Education Statistics, Table 204.20, the canonical national series; NCES has not yet republished this table for school years after 2021-22. For fall 2024, the catalog falls back to figures published directly by the Connecticut state education agency. State-agency methodology may differ from NCES — the methodology note above the data table records the difference, and the dashed line and hollow markers in the chart mark the boundary.
