Case Study: Savannah-Chatham County Public Schools improves multilingual family engagement with LanguageLine

Savannah-Chatham County Public Schools improves language access with LanguageLine in 240+ languages

Savannah-Chatham County Public Schools (SCCPSS) faced the challenge of effectively communicating with its growing population of multilingual families, where 11% of students are English Language Learners. The district needed to break down language barriers to ensure all parents could fully participate in their children's education. To address this, they partnered with vendor LanguageLine for its on-demand interpretation service.

LanguageLine provided SCCPSS with immediate access to video and audio interpretation in over 240 languages. This solution eliminated communication delays, empowered parents to engage in meetings and support plans, and helped the district meet federal compliance standards. The results included improved parental communication, enhanced support for students, and a more inclusive and equitable learning environment for all families.
