If you're a teacher who needs to communicate with a parent whose preferred language is something other than English, you can communicate with that parent via SchoolStatus Connect, even if your preferred language is set to English and theirs is not. 

Through translation, you will receive the parent's replies via SchoolStatus Connect in English (or your preferred language), while they can write and receive messages via their preferred language. 

If for some reason you would like to view the communications in the original language, you can do this by hovering your mouse on the translated text and clicking on it. 

To set your preferred language, please follow the instructions below.

1. Click the drop-down arrow on the top-right

2. Click the gear icon.

3. Click "Account Settings" under "My Profile".

4. Click "Language."

5. Click the drop-down menu and select the Language you want to use.

6. Click "Save."

If the language you need for your community is not listed, please inquire about adding the languages at support-ct@schoolstatus.com. We will gladly assist you!
