Board adopts language access plan to clarify translation and interpretation services
Summary
Director Scott presented a language access plan to guide translation and interpretation for families; the board approved the plan after a motion by Mossman and a second by Diane.
The Hutchinson board voted to adopt a language access plan that lays out how the district will provide translation and interpretation for families who request information in languages other than English.
Director Scott summarized the plan and noted it will be made available to the public and included in district handbooks. The plan explains when translation and interpretation services will be provided during the workday and who families should contact to request services.
Chair Mossman moved to approve the plan and Diane seconded; the board voted in favor and the plan passed.
No public comment or amendments were recorded during the adoption discussion. Administration indicated the plan will be posted and integrated into district communications and handbooks.
