On-site, video, or hybrid interpretation for the moments where most of a family's relationship with the school happens.
What's offered
An interpreter at the table. Best for families who haven't met the teacher before, families with multiple children to discuss, or any conference where complex topics are likely to come up.
An interpreter joins on a tablet or laptop. Lower cost, faster to schedule, works for routine conferences. Quality depends on the connection — we recommend on-site for any conference involving an IEP discussion.
For brief, transactional conferences — schedule changes, attendance, simple updates. Not recommended for conferences where the family is meeting the teacher for the first time.
What we recommend
If the family has a child with an IEP, we recommend on-site interpretation for parent-teacher conferences. Reading body language, holding a printed report card, signing a form — none of this works as well over a video link, and the conferences where on-site presence matters most are exactly the ones where a video link will fail.
Schedule conferences
District-wide conference cycles fill our calendar fast. The earlier you tell us your dates, the easier it is to staff at scale.
