Requesting Language Services
The interpreter can be requested by a parent or by a PSD staff member. We encourage you to first contact your child’s school to request immediate support with translation and interpretation needs.
You can access a list of school email addresses here, or email languageaccess@puyallupsd.org to inquire about services.
If you receive information that is not in your language, please let the school know you would like it translated in writing or explained orally to you in your language.
