With over 20% of the U.S. population speaking a language other than English, parents of LEP students cannot be expected to understand the plethora of notices, permissions, and handbooks that are distributed by US schools. The problem impacts scholastic performance, health and safety, in addition to increasing costs for schools nationwide.
