๐ต๏ธ Parents: How are we doing?
Kuna families
Welcome back from break and the final quarter of the school year!
Each spring for the past several years, we invite our parents and guardians to take a short survey about communication, involvement, and safety.
Here's the link: https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/KSDParent2023
What will we do with the information? We will continue to use it to improve and it will support the work in our strategic plan "Strong Partnerships" focus.
We look forward to reviewing your feedback and sharing it with our schools.
