ESL/Citizenship Report

English Second Language/Citizenship

English classes began in March 1996 at Hayne Baptist and have continued with United Baptist. English classes meet from September to April.

Citizenship Class will take a permanent resident through the entire Naturalization Process from completing the N-400 application through study and preparation for the Citizenship Interview. Because the process takes only 2-3 months, students should attend a Citizenship class for at least 6 months before submitting an application to USCIS.

Due to the Coronavirus, United Baptist Church is closed until April 12th. Therefore, all English classes have been canceled until September.

Current Citizenship students will have one on one study time with the teacher by telephone each week until classes resume on Saturday, April 18th at 10:00 a.m.
