School & education interpreting

School interpreting that gives every family a voice

Parents can’t support what they don’t understand. Our interpreters help schools, districts and early-intervention programs communicate clearly with families in Spanish and 200+ languages — from IEP meetings to parent-teacher conferences.

Why it matters

Every parent has the right to understand

When families understand what’s happening at school, students do better. A professional interpreter makes sure parents can ask questions, share concerns and take part in decisions about their child.

Under Title VI and federal guidance from the U.S. Departments of Education and Justice, schools must communicate essential information to parents with limited English proficiency in a language they understand. For special education, IDEA also requires schools to make sure parents understand IEP meetings — including arranging an interpreter.

FAQ

School interpreting questions

Planning interpreters for the school year? Let’s talk about your district’s needs.

Are schools required to provide interpreters for parents?

Under Title VI and federal guidance, schools must communicate essential information to parents with limited English proficiency in a language they can understand. For special education, IDEA also requires schools to take steps so parents understand IEP meetings, including arranging an interpreter.

Can a student interpret for their parents?

It’s strongly discouraged. Federal guidance warns against using students, siblings or untrained staff as interpreters. It puts children in an unfair position and risks inaccurate or incomplete information.

Do you translate school documents?

Yes. We translate report cards, letters home, handbooks, evaluations, IEP documents and enrollment forms accurately and on time.

Can you support virtual parent meetings?

Absolutely. Our interpreters can join by phone or video, so families can participate from home or work.
