Ms.
Vicki Reich, and Ms. Charlene Lowell are our ESL teachers. Students
who speak little or no English are referred to ESL. ESL is a pull-out
program in which ESL students receive an extra dose of language arts
instruction for several periods during the week. The goal of ESL
services is to prepare students to function successfully in the classrooms
where English is the medium of instruction for all subject areas.
They also provide
numerous additional services to our ESL families including a special
ESL orientation at the start of the school year, reading workshops for
parents, translation of school announcements and information, and much
more.
