Interpretation Equipment

Using interpretation equipment, particularly in large settings, ensures that language barriers do not obstruct communication. This interpretation equipment is available throughout the district, and parents can inquire with their respective schools for more information. The equipment enables interpreters to communicate the message spoken in English over a transceiver to individual receivers used by families with limited English proficiency to hear the message in their language. 

By using the interpretation equipment, non-English speaking parents and families can have access to important information that would otherwise be difficult for them to understand. The equipment can be used in various scenarios, such as school open houses, School Committee, and district meetings, among others. This is an excellent way to ensure that all families are included and have equal opportunities to access information that is essential for their child's education. 

This service is designed to assist central office and school-based staff in meeting the language communication needs of families.
