LANGUAGE INTERPRETATION SERVICES
We help students and families from diverse linguistic and cultural backgrounds. We help you get to know our schools and our system, and to feel at home with us.
You can request an interpreter to help you communicate effectively in a Parent/Teacher Conference or any other meeting with a teacher or CBE staff if you are a parent or guardian. Having an interpreter at a meeting will improve everyone’s understanding of the discussion. There is no cost to families for language interpretation services.
For more information on this service, please visit the CBE Interpretation and Translations Services webpage.
