The District Emergent Multilingual Learner Advisory Committee (DEMLAC) advises the Santa Barbara Unified School District Administration, School Board, and District Advisory Council on matters related to educational programs, policies, procedures, budget, program planning and specific actions being taken for English Language Learners in the District.

DEMLAC will establish and maintain intra-district communication and encourage the sharing of needs, accomplishments and activities that support a high quality program for English Language Learners at all levels of language learning and academic development. The District staff will  report to parents and members of this committee regarding program services, identification of English learners (including testing procedures), placement of students for program services, annual reviews of student progress, and the Annual Language Survey conducted by the State of California, Department of Education.
