Alma Parent & Student Portal Now Multilingual 

Spanish speaking families and students are first to have immediate access.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE – Alma Student Information System (SIS) proudly announces the option of Spanish for the parent and student portals. Built on a framework that supports multiple languages, Spanish speaking students and families will have immediate access to a more accessible experience interacting with their childs’ education. 

Alma works directly with professional translators to achieve correct syntax and the most accurate translation for all languages available within the platform. The immediate addition of Spanish translation accompanies Alma’s registration feature, AlmaStart, which allows users to customize enrollment forms in the language(s) of their choice, creating a more accessible registration experience for new students and families.

Increasing educational equity, inclusion, and family engagement are mission-critical to Alma. The mobile-optimized portal, AlmaNow, gives families and students access to academic progress directly from their mobile device. By expanding AlmaNow to include multiple languages, beginning with Spanish, learning communities can now more equitably engage families in supporting their students. Learning communities have the opportunity to increase family engagement that can lead to greater student outcomes.

Increased language access to Alma’s parent and student portals continues to strengthen school communities’ efforts to encourage families to be invested and included in the education of their children.
