¡Hablamos tu idioma! / We speak your language!

¡Estimadas familias de Bloomingdale!

El idioma nunca debería ser una barrera para la educación de su hijo. Por eso, hemos ampliado nuestra colaboración con Propio para ofrecerles asistencia lingüística totalmente gratuita e instantánea.

📞 ¿Necesita llamar al colegio?
¡Es muy fácil! Para reportar una ausencia, hacer preguntas o hablar con un maestro, llame a nuestra nueva línea multilingüe al (231) 399-4804.

-Marque el número.
-Hable en su idioma (la IA lo detectará automáticamente). Un intérprete en vivo se unirá en segundos.
-Dígale qué escuela necesita y se quedará en la línea para traducirle con la oficina.

🏫 Reuniones Presenciales:

Si tiene una cita programada (como reuniones de IEP), le prestaremos un iPad con un intérprete de video en vivo.

⚠️ Recordatorio Importante:

Nuestro personal de apoyo y auxiliares docentes van a estar en sus vacaciones de verano. Por favor, no los llame ni les mande mensajes a sus celulares personales. En su lugar, use siempre el número oficial (231) 399-4804 para hablar con la secretaría del colegio.

¡Ustedes son una parte fundamental de nuestra comunidad! Los invitamos a usar estas herramientas gratuitas con frecuencia.

Dear Bloomingdale families,

Language should never be a barrier to your child's education. That is why we have expanded our partnership with Propio to offer completely free and instant language assistance.

📞 Need to call the school?

It's easy! To report an absence, ask questions, or speak with a teacher, call our new multilingual line at (231) 399-4804.

-Dial the number.
-Speak your language (the AI will automatically detect it). A live interpreter will join within seconds.
-Tell them which school building you need, and they will stay on the line to translate with the office.

🏫 In-Person Meetings:

If you have a scheduled appointment (like IEP meetings), we will provide an iPad with a live video interpreter.

⚠️ Important Reminder:

Our wonderful support staff and teacher aides will be on summer break. Please refrain from calling or texting their personal cell phones. Instead, always use the official number (231) 399-4804 to speak directly with the school office.

You are a fundamental part of our community! Please use these free tools frequently.
