There are currently over eight thousand students in Jefferson County Public Schools who speak English as a second language.
They come from dozens of different cultural backgrounds and nearly every continent. Culture and country of origin can profoundly influence a child's identity, life experiences, and learning, which is why it is so important for educators to become familiar with these various global cultures.
The English as a Second Language (ESL) program provides Interpretation and Translation service for the entire school district to help our schools / programs communicate effectively with limited English speaking families.
