Multilingual Learners and ESL Services

Sayreville meets the needs of our learners:

Sayreville embraces the growing diverse population of learners in our district and meets the needs of hundreds of multilingual learners in grades Pre-K through 12 in a variety of ways. Our multilingual learners (MLs) are serviced through ESL pull out with one of our district certified ESL teachers daily.  Additionally, with over 200 staff members trained, most of our MLs have Sheltered Instructional Observation Protocol (SIOP) trained teachers.  Our district hosts annual family events to bring the community together and provide additional support for the students. For the past several years, Sayreville has also funded and facilitated a free Adult ESL program for immigrant funding eligible residents.
