Report Cards & Parent-Teacher Conference Survey
Last Monday, we sent home your child's report card in their backpack along with a survey that we ask all families to take and send back to school in your child's backpack. You can also take a picture of the survey and send it via dojo or email to your teacher. We learn much of what we know about students from our families, their first and most important teacher. Thank you for your support in these efforts!
If you prefer to take the survey digitally, you can find it here: https://forms.gle/ZStt2SkFeXy1nXez9.
As always, please feel free to reach out with any questions - we are always available!
