About CRDLLA
Our Mission & Goals
CRDLLA’s primary mission is to develop research that supports second language learners in schools to achieve academically through programs that promote dual languages and English language and literacy acquisition.
Our History
In August 2013, the Board of Regents approved the creation of the center and its operation as a designated Center within the Texas A&M University System. Today it conducts research and service for state and federal entities in the areas of teacher professional development and English language acquisition for English learners through rigorous science instruction and curriculum. The center also conducts research internationally in non-English speaking countries, such as Costa Rica and China, to promote English language learning.
Our Partners
CRDLLA partners with local, state, national, and international organizations, including school districts across the state, the Texas Education Agency, the U.S. Department of Education, international entities, and businesses in the private sector.
