Dear Families,
We value your voice and partnership in your child’s education. As part of our Title I program requirements and school accreditation process, we are asking all parents and guardians to complete a brief Parent Survey.
Your feedback is essential. The information collected helps guide decisions about:
How Title I funds are used to support student learning
Family engagement opportunities and resources
Continuous school improvement and accreditation requirements
The survey is short and should take only a few minutes to complete, but it has a big impact on our ability to best serve students and families.
👉 https://forms.gle/EDms4jmQU9qCBCCk8
All responses are confidential, and we encourage every family to participate.
Thank you for taking the time to share your thoughts and for your continued support of our school. Together, we can ensure the best possible learning experience for our students.
