ESL Program

ESL Program

The term English as a Second Language (ESL) refers to an instructional program for students who are learning English as an additional language and whose level of English Language proficiency precludes them from full participation in learning experiences provided in the school. The purpose of the program is to increase the English Language proficiency of students so that the English language is not a barrier to achieve success in the classroom.  We provide a challenging and comprehensive curriculum for all students and acknowledge the diverse range of skills, abilities, talents and learning styles of each individual student.

ESL Students Are Identified Through Initial Assessments Such As:
