(1) SAN FRANCISCO, CA / ACCESSWIRE / March 3, 2021 / Remind, the leading communication platform in education, announced their upcoming preferred language translation feature: a new way for educators to effectively engage with all families in their home languages. Today, nearly 25 percent of public school students speak a language other than English at home. This has long presented a challenge for effective engagement, but the pandemic has made it clear that equitable, accessible communication is essential to building a strong school-home connection. "English learners need a way to access critical information, resources, and support from their schools, while teachers and administrators need a way to reach and engage directly with families in a multilingual community," said Brian Grey, CEO of Remind. "Our new translation feature is designed specifically to tackle these barriers to communication."
