Note from the Principal
Greetings Buena Vista Parents,
Hope you are all doing well. Only three days left to give parent feedback.Please help us out! I would be so thankful.
Please take our Youth Truth Survey. It only takes 15 minutes to respond to this survey. (I am aiming for 75%+ participation...BV is currently at 46%). We are over half way there..and if truth be told, I may have a little competition going on with the rest of the WCSD principals on who can gather the most parent participation on this one.) Currently both Parkmead and Walnut Heights are leading us in parent completion.
Please take the survey before it closes at midnight on April 29th by clicking this link: http://www.ytsurvey.org/wcsdfamily22.
