Assigning On-Staff or Lexikeet Interpreters for Parent-Teacher Conferences

When scheduling Parent-Teacher Conferences (PTCs), you have the flexibility to either assign on-staff interpreters or schedule a Lexikeet interpreter if your staff does not cover a specific language request. Here’s how to ensure seamless scheduling and assignment:

Steps for Using On-Staff Interpreters

1. Designate On-Staff Interpreters as PTC Admins:

   • Make sure all on-staff interpreters are set as PTC Admins within ReachMyTeach. This role gives them access to view and manage schedules, making it easier to organize their assignments.

2. Assign Interpreters to Conferences:
