A Note from the Principal
You will be receiving an email from Dr. Kirby Goidel about the climate survey. As we close the year we ask that each of you please take time to complete the survey. We will use this survey as a planning tool for next year. Please remember that the survey helps the District and ourselves aware of areas we may need to continue to grow and areas in which we do well. Please take the survey thinking holistically versus thinking of one circumstance. Our goal is that 100% of Blanton Faculty and Staff complete the survey. Thank you in advance for helping to make Blanton better!
Have a great week!
