MLPAC

What is an MLPAC?

Multilingual parent advisory councils are made up of parents and legal guardians of English learners. The Monomoy MLPAC is a space to collaborate with the school district to promote multilingual students’ engagement and success. 

How can I get involved?

Membership is voluntary and is open to all parents and legal guardians of students who are or have been identified as English learners and/or multilingual families (at MRSD).
