ENGLISH FOR SPEAKERS OF OTHER LANGUAGES (ESOL)

 

 What We Do

 The Center for Language and Culture:

  • Evaluates students to determine eligibility for English services; it is a one stop testing and orientation center.
  • Provides families with the opportunity to socialize with others who are learning about American culture too, through meetings and social gatherings.
  • Is committed to making the transition to the United States from another country easier by providing free educational resources and services to English language learners, immigrants, refugees, and their families year round.
