In this role, you will work alongside classroom teachers and school staff to provide language and learning support to Haitian Creole-speaking students in both individual and small group settings. You will help translate instructions, assist with classroom materials, and ensure that students feel seen, supported, and empowered to participate fully in their education. Your warmth, cultural competency, and bilingual skills will help foster a welcoming environment not just for students, but for their families as well. This is an on-call, as-needed position aligned with the standard school calendar, offering flexibility while keeping you connected to the rhythm of the school year.

A Day in the Life A typical day as a Bilingual Aide at Albertville City Schools begins with checking in at the school office, reviewing any assignments or classroom needs for the day, and connecting with the teacher or staff member you'll be supporting. Throughout the morning, you might work alongside a classroom teacher to help Haitian Creole-speaking students understand lesson instructions, translating key concepts and providing one-on-one or small group support to reinforce skills being taught. During transitions — whether to lunch, specials, or recess — you'll help supervise students, ensuring a safe and orderly environment. In the afternoon, you may assist with assessments, help prepare instructional materials for upcoming lessons, or support a student who needs additional reinforcement on a concept introduced earlier in the day. Throughout it all, you serve as a trusted, familiar face for students and families who may feel uncertain navigating an English-dominant school environment — your presence is both practical and profoundly reassuring.
