Here at Hebron Valley
Elementary, we are fortunate enough to have a large population
of students who come from homes where more than one language
is spoken. Some of these students qualify for classes in English
as a Second Language (ESL).
In ESL classes, the
goal is to help students become competent in the comprehension,
speaking, reading, and composition of the English language.
Mastery of these English language skills enable students to
participate equitably in school.
Emphasis is also placed
on exploring and accepting all student's cutural diversity,
while at the same time, educating students on traditional
American holidays and customs. |
