English as a New Language (ENL)

  • Welcome!  The purpose of the English as a New Language program in Washington Township Schools is to cultivate learning experiences that ensure growth and achievement among all of our emerging multilingual students.  Our ENL program supports students as they engage in all domains of language acquisition (listening, speaking, reading, and writing) within meaningful contexts.  We honor all cultures, heritages, and languages as valued assets of our community, and we believe all students can grow in their English proficiency and thrive in content-area courses.
