Sample ELPA21 Parent Letter Available in Numerous Languages

As previously shared, a sample parent ELPA21 letter has been developed for districts to use for communication to parents. While it’s not required that districts use the sample letter, it will serve as a good model for districts who desire to develop their own communication. For districts that wish to utilize the document, place on district letterhead and add additional information as deemed necessary and appropriate for your context.

In addition, the Title III Network has begun collaboration on translations for the sample ELPA21 parent letter so districts may communicate with family members in a language most easily understood. Several translations are currently available and have been posted on the English Language Learners Community Agora. Additional languages will be posted to this statewide site as they become available. Follow these steps to access the translations.
