EWLP District Information

Here are a few answers to our most frequently asked questions.

Can my child register even though he has not participated before?

Absolutely! Students may join the EWLP any semester. Both Chinese and Spanish classes will incorporate new material while continuously reviewing material from previous classes. Repetition and practice are essential to learning a new language. New students can quickly catch up. Students will build confidence while learning important conversation skills within an exciting environment. EWLP teachers make class fun!

What if my child participated in the past? Will the next class be a repeat of a previous class?

No. Each semester of the EWLP introduces new content while constantly recycling material covered in prior semesters. The EWLP language class will enhance your child’s conversation skills by building on previous levels.

What if I don’t see a class for my child at her school?

We are always looking to add new classes where there is interest. If you don’t see a class for your child, please contact our EWLP Assistant Rush Gutierrez to make your preference known. If we can get enough students, we are delighted to do our best to start a class at your school. We want to build language programs in your school!

Is there a discount for the class? What is it and who qualifies for it?

Yes, we do provide a discount for those that qualify. For reduced lunch students there is a 20% fee discount per student and for free lunch students there is a 30% discount per student. If you would like for your child/children to participate, we will need your letter from food services stating approval for free or reduced lunch. Contact us for details.
