Our Schools

English as a New Language (ENL)

Our department is dedicated to ensuring academic success, multilingual development, and social-emotional well-being. By fostering inclusive and safe learning environments through asset-based instruction, we celebrate the unique strengths derived from diverse linguistic and cultural backgrounds.

We actively leverage home languages, prior knowledge, and cultural assets, honoring individual identities and forming strong partnerships with families and colleagues. Committed to equitable access to curricular and extracurricular activities, our mission is to empower students for success in a globalized world, where they navigate confidently with a profound understanding of their cultural heritage, achieving both academic excellence and holistic development.
