Our goal is to create a welcoming space to draw ESL families more into their students' educational experience. Students and families will be encouraged to meet and celebrate different cultures, including their own, with ESL learning, space for inclusivity, and local support and resources for families as a focus. All students, staff, and families are welcome to attend meetings regardless of their own cultural background as long as they love celebrating different cultures! We will work closely with the school's ESL program.
