CMSD Policy on Bilingual Interpreter and Translation Support for Parents
In accordance with the Ohio Civil Rights Action (OCR Docket 15-08-1276), the Cleveland Metropolitan School District (CMSD) is committed to ensuring that parents and caregivers receive appropriate bilingual interpreter and translation support.
Parents who require language assistance can be identified in PowerSchool SIS. Please pay close attention to the Home Language and Native Language fields. If either field indicates a language other than English, oral interpretation and/or written translation services must be provided.
The Multilingual Multicultural Education Department’s Translations & Interpretations Subdivision is dedicated to supporting the communication needs of our multilingual families.
To request translation or interpretation services:
- Families and caregivers should contact their child’s school directly.
- You may also reach out to the Translations & Interpretations Subdivision via email at:Translations_Interpretations@ClevelandMetroSchools.org
Please note that the Principal, Administrator, and Department Administrator's signature are required on ALL forms.
