The Westwood Regional School District offers English language instruction and support services to English Language Learners (ELLs – students for whom English is a second language).  The primary educational objectives are to develop students’ social language as well as essential academic knowledge and skills.  Instructional support is also provided to students in their regular education classes before and after they exit the program.  The state endorsed ACCESS for ELLs assessment is the primary measure by which students are admitted and exited from these programs.
