Update from OBEWL
SIFE Determination & Multilingual Literacy Screener (MLS)
The Office of Bilingual Education is pleased to announce that the MLS project has resumed. The website is currently live at the usual URL: mls.slalab.org.
There is a new MLS feature that allows students to resume a test after it has been interrupted. With this auto-save feature, a student can resume a test within 15 minutes of closing out of the test. After that, the test administrator can contact mls.email.server@gmail.com to unlock their test for them. Please feel free to reach out to the email list above with any questions.
For more information about SIFE & the MLS visit:
