Parent Survey SCDE | Due 4/12 | only 60 have completed so far
The South Carolina Department of Education partners with the Education Oversight Committee to deliver a parent survey. The responses to this survey help school and district leaders understand how parents feel about the school. Survey information is being sent to the parents or guardians of every student in South Carolina.
If you have multiple children, we are only asking you to complete one survey for each school your children attend. You are permitted to complete one survey for each of your children if you would like to, but only one survey for each school is needed.
The survey will remain open until April 12. Please see below for steps on how to access the survey.

I’m interested but not sure what I would need to do… those signing up should be willing to help maintain our cafeteria expectations outlined in the IROCC Expectation Matrix. Volunteers are willing to walk around, assist students, and ensure safety!
