PS 217 Parent Language Volunteers are Here to Help!

We hope that you have already received an informative flyer and a refrigerator magnet and you are as excited as we are about this new program. If you want help on school matters in your language, if you need to understand what various school letters and flyers are about and language is a barrier for you, we are excited to announce that starting January 2016 the Parent Interpreters will be here to help. Come meet them in Room 108 every week. You will find friendly faces and welcoming people talking to you and helping you to the best of their abilities.
