Program Description
NATIONAL LANGUAGE ARTS LEAGUE (NLAL) was founded in 1980 by Quartararo and Henry Hull, two educators with more than 30 years of teaching experience. This competition is designed to test and improve the grammar, vocabulary, and reading comprehension skills of students in grades 2-12 in the U.S. Additionally,the NLAL is widely recognized as an effective tool for improving language skills, stimulating creativity, and developing critical thinking and problem-solving skills.
In 2024, ASEEDER and the NLAL organizing committee entered into a partnership to bring this English literacy challenge for Native American students to Asia. The aim is providing students with the opportunity to participate in a Native American English challenge, improve their English language skills, and align with U.S. curriculum standards.
