As you are aware, ACPS has launched a new website. Consequently, the links for requesting translation and interpretation services have also changed; all forms and information are located at: www.acps.k12.va.us/translation.
You can also navigate to the Translation and Interpretation Services page from the ACPS homepage by clicking on STAFF. You will find the link under TOOLS and RESOURCES.
When requesting services, please remember:
- Interpretation requests must be sent via the online form at least 5 school days in advance of the date needed. (Requests for large-scale prescheduled events, such as Back-to-School Nights and Parent/Teacher Conferences, should be sent with more time in advance due to higher demand.)
- Cancellations must be submitted at least two school days in advance of the scheduled service date (48 hours). If cancelled less than two school days in advance, ACPS will be charged for the service. Please be responsible about cancelling services in a timely manner.
- Vital documents translation requests must be sent via the online request form at least 7 school days in advance of the translation need date, which is average amount of time required to deliver the final project. Please keep in mind that the time needed and delivery date may vary depending on the length of the document(s) as well as demand.
