The multi-lingual Parent Information Center, called the PIC, is usually the first place students and families visit when starting the process of entering the Somerville Public Schools. The PIC guides families through the process of registering students for school, and helps families find local resources and services necessary to support their child's education and development throughout their lives.
PIC staff members speak English, Spanish, Portuguese, Haitian Creole, and French.
