Translation services at Brockton Schools

Nearly half of all students in Brockton Public Schools speak a language other than English at home. The district's Multilingual Parent Communication Center is working to make translation and interpretation services more accessible to families who don't speak English as a first language by centralizing services, and offering support both within and beyond the school system.

WBUR Senior Education Reporter Carrie Jung joins The Common with more on Brockton Public School's efforts to support immigrant and non-English-speaking families in the community.
