1st Graders Learned About Parts of a Plant and Their Function By Growing Them!
Dear Dixie Family,
As our school is implementing a whole-school transformational process called the Leader in Me,
We will be conducting surveys to learn more about key areas of strength and areas of needed growth in our school. In order for us to have a holistic picture of what is going on in our school, we are asking all full-time staff members (teachers, para's, any full-time adult that interacts with our students), parents/guardians, and students in Grade 4 and up to participate.
You will be asked to complete a survey (without sharing your name or other identifying information) that will be available through the web link below.
Please complete the MRA by April 22nd.
