Albanian language included in official communications of New York public schools

The Albanian language has been officially declared as one of the languages ​​used for school communications by the City Department of Education.

The news was announced by New York State Chancellor of Education Melissa Aviles-Ramos. 

According to   illyria.com , out of the approximately 180 languages ​​spoken in New York City, to date only 10 languages ​​have been included in official public school communications.

With the latest decision, three more languages ​​are added, one of which is Albanian, bringing the total number to 13 (including English).

This means that any important document, notice or information that the school sends to parents will also be available in Albanian, significantly facilitating the involvement of Albanian parents in the educational life of their children.

For years, many Albanian parents have had difficulty keeping up with their children's school life due to the language barrier. Now, with documents in their native language, they feel represented and respected. They can more easily understand any information, react with more confidence, and actively participate in decision-making that affects their children's education.

 The fact that Albanian is now part of the official documentation of an educational system like New York's is a powerful message that increases their self-confidence and pride in their origins, confirming that identity is not an obstacle, but an asset, this media outlet writes.
