Programs and Services

 

Overview:  Jersey Avenue Elementary School, which is on a traditional calendar school year, lies in the northern section of the city of Santa Fe Springs. The educational programs are tailored to meet the needs of our changing society. Jersey Avenue is dedicated to ensuring the academic success of every student and providing a safe and comprehensive educational experience.
 
 
 
The Little Lake City School District recognizes that students with special gifts and talents need more challenging curriculum and instruction. The District’s Gifted and Talented Education (GATE) program is open to students in grades 3-8 who have been identified through testing and teacher referrals. Teachers provide differentiated classroom instruction and enrichment activities.
 
 
 
Little Lake’s English Language Learner Program aims for students to gain proficiency in English and the core subjects. For admission to the Bilingual Program, parents must sign a Parent Exception Waiver. Please call Educational Services and/or your local school to learn more about the options and which one is best for your child. Parents can choose among three alternatives:
 
 
  • Structured English Immersion - Instruction provided in English with support in the youngster’s primary language.
  • Mainstream English - English only instruction
  • Bilingual Program - Foundational instruction in the youngster’s primary language with the transition to English over time.
 
Parents and the community are supportive of the education program. Our generous and active PTA provides numerous activities and events for our families throughout the year. Every activity is provided for our families free of charge. Sample activities include:
