School Navigation & Bridge Leaders

Four Kubana community members standing together outdoors

School systems can be difficult to navigate, especially across languages and cultures. Kubana equips parents and caregivers to understand grades, attendance, graduation requirements, technology platforms, and available services.

How the program works

  • Hands-on training for school portals, email, and communication tools.

  • Workshops aligned with grade reports, student rights, and advocacy.

  • Parent communication networks for reminders and shared support.

  • Bridge Leaders trained to connect families, schools, and Kubana.

The goal is clear two-way communication so families can monitor progress, ask informed questions, and advocate for their children as equal partners.
