ENGLISH AS A SECOND LANGUAGE
Academics
Do you want to improve your English speaking, listening, reading and writing skills?
The ESL (English as a Second Language) program is for people
who do not speak English as their first language and want to
learn English to get a job, get a better job, go to college or vocational school, or become a United States citizen.
ESL: Learn to listen to, read, write, and speak English as it
relates to everyday life through topics such as health and safety,
online communication, employment, community services and
resources, and American government and laws.
ESL/Distance Learning: Learn to listen to, read, write, and
speak English in your own home!
ESL/Citizenship: Learn to listen to, read, write, and speak
English as you learn how to be successful in the application and
interview process for United States citizenship.
ESL classes are at the main Elk Grove Adult and Community Education (EGACE) campus on Gerber Road and in several neighborhood locations in the community. There are morning, afternoon and evening ESL classes. Classes are offered at 5 levels. Classes
start at the beginning level for those who do not read or write English, and progress to the advanced level. Some classes have
students at one level and other classes have students at several different levels in the same class. New students take a test to find
out what level is best for them. ESL Classes are free at all locations.
Students interested in ESL classes at our main campus on Gerber Road or distance learning must make an
appointment to come in to take a test and register for class. Registration appointments are available online at www.
egusd.net/egace. Space is very limited and appointments fill up fast.

knowledge of the facts of the alleged discrimination. Complaints regarding a special needs student may be
filed within 12 months of the occurrence. [E.C. 56500.2]
The complaint procedure can be used for a variety of issues not mentioned above including, but not limited

• An unlawful discrimination complaint must be filed no later than six months from the date the alleged
