District Accreditation Happening Now. Staff Survey Has Been Released.
Boone County School District is going through its Accreditation Review this year, which takes place every 5 years. Part of that review is input from staff, students, parents, and community stakeholders. That input is gathered in the form of surveys. AdvancEd is the Accreditation organization that collects the data from the surveys and all responses are completely confidential.
The purpose of this survey is to find out your opinions about your school. Read each statement and choose the response that most closely matches your opinion. Please answer each item honestly. This survey should take no more than 10 minutes to complete.
