Overview

The design of the ESL (English as a Second Language) is tailored to meet the linguistic, academic and affective needs of our students.  It provides our ESL students with instruction necessary to allow them to progress through school at a rate commensurate with their native English-speaking peers and to make the best use of district and community resources.  At the elementary level, the program is a pull-out design.  Small groups of students grouped by grade level are provided ESL instruction for 30 minutes per day by a certified ESL teacher.
