Clinton Schools are Accommodating Non-Native English Speakers

As communities across the district become more and more diverse, a local junior high is trying to lend a hand to non-native English speakers. 

 

Jim Peck, Principal of Clinton Junior High explains they will be hosting an event to give resources to parents and students who learned English as a second language. 

This event was created in response to the increased number of families who may not speak English primarily moving into the community. Peck says this is trying to meet a need that previously was not being met. 

Peck mentions the use of AI as a resource when teaching ESL students. The district continues to look for ways to have educational equity for all students no matter the barriers. 

ESL will take place on December 12th from 5:30 to 7:30 at Clinton Junior High School. Get more information at cusd15.org
