Parents who don’t speak English would have more access to translated documents under Colorado bill

The personalized education plans that spell out how a school intends to support a student with a disability can run dozens of pages and be full of technical language. And in many Colorado school districts, parents who speak a language other than English don’t see a copy of their child’s plan in the language they understand best until they’re being asked to sign a legally binding final version. A bill in the Colorado legislature would change that, requiring that final education plans be translated, as also required by federal law, and allowing parents to request draft documents in their preferred language.
