GLENN ADULT PROGRAM’S ESL CLASSES
English As a Second Language
After a few months off, the English Language Learners at the Adult Learning Center are back in the classroom and ready to learn!
There is a diverse group of individuals this year, with students from countries such as Mexico, Afghanistan, India and Cambodia, —just to name a few.
According to the National Clearinghouse for English Language Acquisition (NCELA), state-collected data for 2005 to 2006 shows more than five million students with limited English proficiency (LEP) enrolled in kindergarten through 12th grade, and 1,172,569 adults in state-run ESL programs in 2003 to 2004. Public schools are legally required to address the educational needs of non-English-speaking youth, assuring they can achieve academic success. Non-English-speaking adults voluntarily take English as a Second Language (ESL) classes to participate more fully in their communities.

ESL classes assist students in developing reading, writing, listening, speaking, grammar, and pronunciation skills in a global society. English proficiency is encouraged through such events as off-site field trips, where students are encouraged to use their English language skills.
Our Field trips are fun and a great way to learn and use new words and phrases.
