Clear communication is essential in education, and translated documents help families stay informed. We provide accurate translations of enrollment forms, report cards, school policies and more, and our team ensures that every document is culturally appropriate and easy to understand.
Parents play a crucial role in a child's education, and language should not be a barrier. We translate newsletters, permission slips and school announcements into multiple languages, so families receive important information in their native language.
School documents often require more than just translation: they need to keep their original formatting and design. Our desktop publishing services make translated brochures, handbooks and presentations look professional, with layouts adjusted to accommodate different languages.
Public school districts in the United States are required to provide translation and interpretation services to individuals and families with limited English proficiency (LEP). Many districts must meet language access requirements under federal and state laws, such as Title VI and IDEA. Our school translation services and interpreters help districts meet them, with confidentiality and accuracy in every educational translation.
The main challenges are tight budgets, finding one vendor that supports every language a district needs, slow email-based workflows, and long waits for a simple quote. MotaWord solves each of these. Whether you need to communicate with LEP parents, publish your website in different languages, translate student records, or get contractual documents translated, our platform covers all of it.
Translation memory is a database that stores all your translated sentences and paragraphs. School districts tend not to have the translation volumes of large enterprises, so our Statewide Translation Memory (SWTM) program lets districts in the same state take advantage of the translation memory of all other districts. We anticipate total savings of 20% to 40% for each district, and the more districts sign up, the more each one saves.
Ever since we announced this program, school districts like South Portland, St. Joseph, Lawrence Public Schools, Springfield, Missouri State and many more joined us. Once you refer another school district and they join, your district gets extra discounts. Call or email your counterparts, or just tell us who else may need to be on this program and we will reach out to them.
"You have been a lifesaver in getting a quick turnaround on translations for emergencies. You have also been a tremendous help with our languages that are low incidence, providing translations in many more languages than we have ever offered before. Thank you for helping us connect with all parents in an affordable way!"
Lisa N., Perry School
