Students whose home language is not English are evaluated upon entering Deerfield Beach High School and are placed either in sheltered ESOL classes or regular classes depending on English language level.
The ESOL Department is committed to providing rigorous academics, promoting community involvement, and delivering quality services to English Language Learners, and multilingual families.
