    At my school, much of the extra paperwork is NOT done by the ESL
    teacher (some is done by the counselor, some by an
    administrator, and some by paraprofessionals), but that varies
    by school. There is a Home Language Survey for all new students.
    There is placement testing and the accompanying paperwork when a
    new student arrives, annual language proficiency tests, and
    letters that have to be sent home explaining what services are
    going to be provided. There are forms for monitoring progress,
    and paperwork for when a student exits the EL program. Most of
    the paperwork is state-mandated so it has to be kept on file and
    completed within a specific timeline. What's required varies by
    state; who does it varies by school.
