Welcome to the Parent Information Center
13800/13800_755568321_4766.jpg

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.

The Parent Information Center (PIC) provides the following services to families in Somerville and the Somerville Public Schools:

  • New Students Registration
  • Kindergarten Registration
  • Nurse review and assistance obtaining medical registration information
  • Intra-District Transfer Requests
  • Information about Parent Workshops and Support Groups
  • Additional services include Bilingual Services as well as Parent/Guardian outreach
  • Referral to Mass Health/Children's Medical Plan Insurance

During the school year the Parent Information Center is open from Monday through Thursday from 8:00 AM to 4:00 PM and Fridays from 10:00 AM -4:00 PM. During the summer the Parent Information Center is open Monday through Friday from 8:00 AM - 3:30 PM.

The Somerville Public Schools is committed to having all activities in all schools accessible to all students, parents/guardians and community members.  Click here for details on accessibility.
