    Bilingual Parent Advisory Committee (BPAC)

    The Bilingual Parent Advisory Committee (BPAC) supports emergent bilingual (EB) families in District 65’s learning community. BPAC works to enhance and enrich achievement for all students by promoting educational and cultural resources and empowering parents and caregivers to actively participate in the educational process for their children.

    What is BPAC?

    The committee consists of parents/caregivers of students enrolled in the bilingual or English as a Second Language (ESL) program, two-way immersion (TWI) program, bilingual and ESL teachers, district administrators, and community leaders. Committee members participate in the planning and evaluation of the TWI and ESL programs and offer quarterly workshops relating to education, the district, and our community. To learn more about BPAC, please contact Tania Margonza, BPAC President, at (847) 859-8066.
