It's survey time
Each year you get the opportunity to share about your experience at KAES. This is a way you can be heard and we can gain valuable feedback on what is going well and what needs to be improved. In the next week we will send you a link to our survey. Each parent can take the survey. This link will expire so when you recieve your link please fill out the survey.
