Welcome to ELL (English Language Learners). The ELL Department is located at Hinsdale Central High School. We always open our doors to students from Hinsdale South who qualify to receive ELL services. The ELL program is determined to make the transition to Central a positive and engaging experience for students. We seek to grow through learning as a community. Best practices indicates that ELL students learn English through listening, speaking, reading and writing English on a consistent basis. We hope to challenge students to become proficient in English through high standards and research-based teaching strategies.
