Student Opportunity and Multilingual Services

Student Opportunity and Multilingual Services Department

Welcome to the Student Opportunity and Multilingual Services Department for Prince William County Public Schools, where every student's potential is nurtured and celebrated. Our department is a beacon of leadership and support across a diverse spectrum of programs designed to ensure every student has access to the resources and opportunities needed to thrive.

With a dedicated focus on Title I and IV programs, we strive to enhance educational equity, providing targeted support to schools and ensuring that all students, regardless of their socioeconomic status, have access to high-quality education and the tools for success.

Understanding the importance of language and communication in our diverse community, our English Learners, Translations, and Interpretation services work tirelessly to ensure that language barriers do not impede student success.

Furthermore, our Global Welcome Centers are a testament to our commitment to embracing and supporting families new to our country.

The foundation of lifelong learning starts early, and our Preschool programs are designed to ignite curiosity, build foundational skills, and prepare our youngest learners for their educational journey ahead.

The sustainability of Federal Programs ensures the longevity and effectiveness of our initiatives, guaranteeing that our efforts to support and enrich the educational experience of every student are well-resourced and impactful.

At the Student Opportunity and Multilingual Services Department, we believe in the power of opportunity, the importance of multilingualism, and the potential of every student. Join us in our mission to create a future where every student in Prince William County Public Schools has the support, resources, and opportunities to achieve their fullest potential.
