Welcome to the Language Service Registration Center (LSRC), a service of the Arlington Public Schools’ Department of Teaching and Learning.

The LSRC facilitates the school registration process for families with English as a Second Language, and provides language support to families, students, and schools through translation and interpretation services.

What we do:

• Register and evaluate students whose first language or the language most often used at home is other than English;
• Register and evaluate students with other language backgrounds, who are English Language Learners (EL);
• Introduce families to the different schools and alternative programs;
• Provide language interpretation and translation services;
• Manage demographic and educational data for EL students;
• Publish the “Survey of Limited English Proficiency Students”, annual report of the number of students and languages of English Language Learners in the Arlington Public Schools (APS), and
• Provide interpretation and translation staff development.
