IMPORTANT END-OF-YEAR INFORMATION REGARDING YOUR CHILD'S BELONGINGS
Due to our move to the new building, NO LEFTOVER STUDENT ITEMS will be kept in the office for summer pick-up. PLEASE communicate with your child's teacher if your child will not be here on June 12th and let them know when your child's last day will be, in order for them to make sure your child's belongings come home with them on their last attendance day. Again, we will not be holding any belongings here at the school. All leftover items will be disposed of on June 12th.
2023 End of the Year Survey
Parents and Guardians,
Please take the time to complete the 2023 End of the Year Survey.
This survey is designed to collect feedback from parents on the climate and culture of our schools. Please respond to each statement to the best of your ability. Information received from this survey will be compiled and used by both the district and the school to inform our policies and procedures in creating a positive learning environment for all students.
If you have children at multiple schools, please complete this survey as many times as needed so that you complete one survey per school. For example, if you have three children who attend two schools, please complete this survey twice, one time for each school. Do your best to isolate your responses by only thinking about your experiences with one school as you complete the survey the first time. When you return, focus your responses on your experiences at the other school.
