In a collaborative effort to broaden the reach of FCTC’s ELL/ESOL classes, and better meet the needs of St. Johns County School District students, families, employees, and the community, we would like to survey as many residents as we can to see if there is enough interest in adding evening ESOL classes to some of our district high schools.
