Are T&I Requests still being submitted through School Dude?

Yes, T&I (not Special Ed., related) still uses SchoolDude for requesting interpretations/translations/equipment rental. Don't forget to click on Reports/Labels/Forms in step 3 to ensure we receive your request.

Is this the same process for requesting an interpreter for an IEP?

No, the Special Education Department's team of interpreters has their own process. Please submit your request via their Special Ed Interpreter request form.

The system won't allow me to attach my file for translation, what now?

Email [email protected] and attach your document. The subject line should simply read: Document for Work order: (insert your work order #).

I've submitted a work order and don't know where it stands in the process, how can I get a status?

Just kidding we do need an interpreter after all, do we need to submit another work order?

No, with your work order number handy, dial ext. 92140 to update your request.

My request is for an emergency and needs immediate attention, do I need to go through the School Dude process?

I need to cancel my request; do I submit a new work order to cancel the original request?

Please do not initiate a new work order for the cancellation of another. You may either email [email protected] and reference the work order you need to cancel, or dial ext., 92140 and reference the work order number.

This process is a bit confusing, can someone help me with my first request?
