Review the K-5 Elementary English Language Arts Programs
We're excited to announce an upcoming opportunity that will enhance the educational experience for our students in Kindergarten through 5th grade. As part of our commitment to increase learning, we've initiated a Request for Proposal (RFP) for adopting English Language Arts materials for elementary grades K-5.
Our resource adoption process, which is in line with Utah Senate Bill 127 and Policy 8800, ensures that language arts materials selected for elementary education meet state standards. However, we recognize that fostering collaboration and communication is crucial for achieving the best educational outcomes. Therefore, we extend an invitation to you to attend an open house where you can gain firsthand experience with materials and provide your invaluable input.
Details for the Open House event are as follows:
Dates:
Time: 4:00 pm - 6:00 pm
Location: District Office Boardroom, 5320 Adams Ave Parkway
During these events, various vendors will showcase their products, allowing you to interact with them and provide feedback. Your insights will ensure that we choose an ELA program that best supports our students' growth and development.
We highly value your input and eagerly anticipate your participation in this crucial event. Together, we can establish a vibrant learning environment that empowers our students to excel.
If you have any questions or need additional information, please do not hesitate to contact us at the Weber School District Curriculum Department at 801-476-7819.
Thank you for your unwavering support in delivering the highest quality education to our students.
Warm regards,
Weber School District Curriculum Department

Dual language immersion is a 50/50 instructional model in which students spend half their day learning in English and the other half learning in Spanish or Chinese. Through developmentally appropriate curriculum, students naturally pick up the language as they learn other subjects. The program is based on the total language learning approach incorporating content-based instruction and explicit language instruction. Our goal is that our immersion students will become bi-literate and bilingual.
Within Weber School District there are four language immersion programs. A separate application is required for each program. If you would like more information about a specific program, you are welcome and encouraged to attend an informational meeting hosted by the school principal and a school district representative. Only students entering 1st grade during the 2024-2025 school year are eligible to apply. Applications will be available at 9:00 AM on morning following the parent meeting at each school site.
--Applications may only be submitted on behalf of incoming first graders.--
