You’re an important part of your child’s education!

Remember, schools must communicate with all parents, including limited-English proficient parents, in a language they can understand.

This includes notification about all programs, services, and activities that are called to the attention of other parents. Schools may not rely on or ask students, siblings, or other children to interpret for parents. It’s the school’s obligation to plan for and provide competent, adult interpreters and translators to communicate with parents at no cost. Check out the OSPI website.

If you have any questions or would like to request an interpreter or translation, your school can help. You can ask anyone in the school for help
