We Are So Close!!
We are getting close to the 20% response rate that the state requires to receive a parent report for our school. As of today, we are at a parent response rate of 19%! If you haven't done so already, please take a few minutes to complete the survey and let us know how we are doing. This information will be part of our Illinois School Report Card once completed.
Now that 5Essentials is administered every year, it will be more useful for planning. Results from the survey will be used by both our school and the District 200 Board of Education to help guide our efforts.
To take the short survey:
- Visit https://survey.5-essentials.org/Illinois/
- Choose the Parent Survey.
- Enter “Dupage” for our county.
- Begin typing Lincoln until you see the correct address.
