Welcome! Bienvenidos! Bonjour! Namaste! Konnichiwa!
I am excited to support our multilingual learners as they grow in their English language development. Our goal is to ensure that every student feels welcome, understood, and confident while learning across all academic areas.
Our ESL program focuses on developing the four language domains:
Listening
Speaking
Reading
Writing
We work closely with families, classroom teachers, and support staff to help students succeed academically and socially. Whether your child is new to English or continuing their language growth, we are here every step of the way!
Q: How long will my child stay in the ESL program?
A: Every child grows at a different pace. Students exit when they reach the required English proficiency score.
Q: Is ESL the same as special education or intervention?
A: No. ESL supports English language learning, not academic learning disabilities.
Q: Will my child fall behind because of ESL?
A: No — ESL supports help them understand classroom content better.
Q: Can families still use their home language at home?
A: Yes! Keeping the home language strong helps children learn English faster.
Q: How do I know my child is making progress?
A: Students receive annual ACCESS scores, teacher updates, and progress reports.
