English as a Second Language


ESL means English as a second language and ELL refers to English language learners.  ESL is an academic program that provides supplemental language arts instruction for children whose first language is not English.  The purpose of the ESL program is to improve children's English language skills to a level where they can succeed in their mainstream classrooms.  ESL programs are available at all schools within our district.

Every year, ESL staff teach over 700 English language learners in District 622.  Our students come from a variety of countries and speak a variety of languages.  Currently, 59% speak Hmong, 22% speak Spanish, 8% speak African languages, and 11% speak other languages.

Bilingual Hmong and Spanish-speaking liaisons help families of ELLs communicate with school staff.
