5 Essential Parent Survey
This completely anonymous, 20-minute survey is designed to give your principal, teachers, and staff a better understanding of how you feel about your school, the school district, and how connected you feel to your child's learning. This information is used by the superintendent, principals, and teachers. It will help us know where we need to improve communication and engagement with you so that we can all be on the same team to support your child. Your name and contact information will never be used and results will be reported directly to the school. We really appreciate your time to help us become better at partnering with you and supporting your child.
Please complete a survey for each of your children that attend Howbert.
