Printing SESIS documents in a language other than English

Letters sent to parents and guardians may be printed from SESIS in English, as well as any of the nine fully-supported languages. There are also over 40 additional languages that are partially-supported by SESIS.

The family's preferred language is identified in ATS and copied to SESIS. This designation dictates what language SESIS will use when printing letters for parents and guardians.

Note: All profile changes must occur in ATS. Changes in ATS are reflected in SESIS the following business day.

Important: The following letters have not been translated in SESIS. These letters will only print in English, even if the preferred language is a fully-supported language.

• Notice of Mandated 3 Year Reevaluation
  
  
• Consent for Additional Assessments (New Testing Needed)
  
  
• Notice of No New Testing Needed
  
  
• Per Session Appointment Letter
  
  
• Request for Release of Records
  
  
• Notice of Recommendation Declassification
  
  
• Parental Withdrawal of Consent
