Languages supported by SESIS

In an effort to support as many families as possible, SESIS provides support for printed documents in over 50 foreign languages.

The family's preferred language, as specified in ATS, dictates the preferred-language used in SESIS.

Fully-supported languages

SESIS provides full support for nine languages:

• Arabic
  
  
• Bengali
  
  
• Chinese
  
  
• French
  
  
• Haitian Creole
  
  
• Korean
  
  
• Russian
  
  
• Spanish
  
  
• Urdu
  
  

If the family's preferred language is one of the nine fully-supported languages, all letters sent to parents and guardians will print from SESIS in English as well as the preferred language.

Important: Only letters sent to parents and guardians print in the preferred language. Documents, such as the Individualized Education Program (IEP), are not translated and will only print in English.
