Share Your Perspective: Take the USD Perception Survey
We believe in listening to and learning from all of our educational partners including our students, staff and families as to what we do well to support our students and areas we need to grow as a District. Your perspective matters, and you have the opportunity to provide your feedback through our USD Perception Survey. Your feedback will allow us to reflect on the great work we do together for our students and the areas we may need to refine.
Please take a moment to complete a short, anonymous survey to share your opinions about your experiences in USD this school year which will give us important feedback as we plan for the future.
The survey will close on Friday, February 10, 2023. Parents/guardians with multiple children may submit the survey for each child.
