Welcome to the Missouri Migrant Education/English Language Learning Website

The "No Child Left Behind" (NCLB) Act of 2001, Title I-C and Title III programs in Missouri, have been reorganized as the Missouri Migrant Education and English Language Learning (MELL) Program.

What is the MELL Purpose

The reorganized Missouri Migrant Education and English Language Learning program (MELL) is designed to use existing resources to better serve all English Language Learning (ELL) and migrant students in the state of Missouri. The MELL program works to prevent duplicate services and allows most funds to swiftly reach any and all Missouri school districts with children of need.

What is the MELL Structure

The MELL program is under the contract the Missouri Department of Elementary and Secondary Education (DESE) has with the Jefferson City School District. The Director of MELL coordinates nine regional offices from the central office in Jefferson City, MO. DESE funds the nine MELL centers and the central office through contracts with all Missouri public school districts or institutions of higher education. DESE also allocates funding to school districts for direct services to targeted students.
