English Language Services

An International Community

Hilliard City Schools serves more than 16,000 students and their families. Approximately 10% of our students are learning English as a new language, and will soon be bilingual or even multilingual.

In addition to our English Learner (EL) program, Hilliard offers a robust World Languages Program wherein all students can learn German, French, Spanish, Mandarin Chinese, or American Sign Language (ASL).

In Hilliard, we value multilingualism because we understand it gives our students a competitive advantage in an increasingly dynamic world.

Our most skilled multilingual students will have the opportunity to earn the distinguished Ohio Seal of Biliteracy, thereby demonstrating their superior linguistic abilities.
