Trevino Mendez 􀀍  \nJohn R. Slate† Cynthia Martinez-Garcia‡  \nIn this investigation, the relationship between bilingual education program type (i.e., dual language programs or exit programs) and English Language Learner reading and mathematics test scores was examined. Data were obtained on English Language Learners who were enrolled in Grades 3, 4, 5, and 6 in Texas public schools for the 2008-2009, 2009-2010, and 2010-2011 school years. In all 24 analyses, the reading and mathematics scores of English Language Learners who attended a dual language program were consistently higher than the scores of the English Language Learners who were enrolled in an exit program. As grade level increased from Grade 3 to Grade 6, the achievement gap in reading and in mathematics between dual language and exit programs also increased.  \nKeywords: bilingual education program, dual language program, exit program.  \nIntroduction  \nEducators have been faced the challenge of having to instruct students with linguistic and cultural differences for a long time (Yturriago & Garcia, 2014) . A lengthy and turbulent educational and legal history lies behind the integration of English Language Learners into the U.S. educational system, including legal and political decisions regarding the adequacy and availability of language acquisition programs for English Language Learners (Flores, Batalova, & Fix, 2012) . Thus, federal law requires the provision of adequate English language development support for English Language Learners, as well as an annual proficiency assessment (Samson & Collins, 2012) .  \nAccording to the Texas Administrative Code (2012, p. 1), \"the terms English language learner and limited English proficient student are used interchangeably\". Statistically significant differences have been documented in the test scores of English Language Learners by ethnic/racial classification; with Asian students constituting the highest performing English Language Learners, followed by White students. Black and Hispanic English Language Learners are the lowest performing groups (Flores, Batalova, & Fix, 2012) .

In this document, President Obama acknowledged his commitment to providing equity of opportunity for English Language Learners. He also recognized the responsibility of America’s schools of meeting the educational needs of this group of students. In this document, President Obama perceived the importance of the utilization of an evaluation system of the educational programs regarding language instruction.  \nTo meet the educational needs of minority language students, different modalities of bilingual education programs have been developed over time. Cazden and Snow (1990) referred to the term bilingual education as \"a simple label for a complex phenomenon\" (p. 9) . According to Baker (2006), \"the term [is] ambiguous and imprecise\" (p. 192) . The Commissioner’s Rules (Chapter 89) regarding Adaptations for Special Populations; Subchapter BB Concerning State Plan for Educating English Language Learners ascertained that:  \nThe bilingual education program shall be a full-time program of instruction in which both the students' home language and English shall be used for instruction.
