Learning extends beyond the classroom! 🗺️ Yesterday, our ESOL students visited City Hall--hosted by Council Member Susan Zhuang--where they learned more about civic engagement and the role local government plays in our communities. This visit is one example of how we integrate civics literacy and real-world learning into our ESOL program, connecting classroom lessons to everyday life.

Thank you so much to Council Member Zhuang for welcoming our students and sharing this valuable experience! 🏛️✨
