Schools will ask parents to fill out a home language survey when students enroll in school. The survey asks if a language other than English is spoken at home, or if the student speaks a language other than English.

For the most part, home language surveys include versions of the following questions: Is English your first language? Can you speak another language? If yes, what language? What language do you speak most often with your friends? What language do you speak most often with your family?
