The Palo Alto Adult School ESL program offers many classes to help you meet your English learning goals. We offer a range of English classes from Literacy to Advanced levels at no charge. To enter our FREE classes, new students must register for a placement test.
Our spring 2026 ESL registration is full and closed. We will resume placement testing in August 2026 for the fall 2026 session. Please check with us in mid-July for the exact testing dates.
If you have questions, or for more details, please call the ESL office at (650) 494-2326, or send us an email at esl@pausd.org.
Note: There is no childcare for the placement test or the classes.
