Why Tracking Interpreter Demand Matters

In today's diverse educational landscape, ensuring clear communication with ESL families during parent teacher conferences is crucial. Yet, many school administrators face challenges in tracking interpreter demand, often leading to last-minute scrambles and potential miscommunication.
