Release Date: July 7, 2025

This release introduces new enhancements and fixes that improve compliance accuracy, streamline data management, and support state-specific workflows.

We’ve enhanced the existing Language tracking features in LACES to support more consistent data collection and improved usability, enhancing how language data can be searched, viewed, and analyzed by state and local providers.

These updates apply to all student, staff, and tutor records. Upon request, First and Second Language fields can be added to your Student Intake form. For questions or to request additional messages, please contact your State Administrator or LACES Support.
