Our Learning Community...
We need your help completing the California Healthy Schools online survey! On Monday we emailed you the link to this survey, we have had 19 submitted, if you have not completed it yet please do!
The purpose of this survey is to obtain parent perceptions about Jones Elementary. Your participation is voluntary. It is also very important. The information you provide will help guide district and school efforts to promote safety, enhance learning supports, and improve student achievement.
- This is an anonymous survey. It is designed so that no one can be identified from the data. You do not have to respond to any questions that you feel could be used to identify you. Simply skip any such questions.
- All questions apply to this school only.
- The results are for the use of San Diego Unified. The California Department of Education and WestEd will preserve data confidentiality and refer any data requests to the district.
INSTRUCTIONS FOR ACCESSING THE SURVEY
- If you have more than one child at this school, you will only need to complete one survey for this school.
- Please fill out just one survey about the school using your oldest child as a reference.
- After the first page of the survey, you will be able to change the language to one of 18 options.
Access the survey using the following URL:
Women's History Month
This month is a celebration of women’s immense contributions to history, culture, and society. Recognizing the achievements of women in all facets of life – science, community, government, literature, art, sports, medicine – has a huge impact on the development of self-respect and new opportunities for girls and young women.
"Women have been leaders, not only in securing their own rights of suffrage and equal opportunity, but also in the abolitionist movement, the emancipation movement, the industrial labor movement, the civil rights movement, and the peace movement, which have created a more fair and just society for all. The history and contributions of women have consistently been overlooked, misinterpreted, and undervalued in the curriculum of public education institutions and still today. San Diego Unified is committed to recognizing and honoring women for their many contributions not only to their communities but to the students and families in our district schools." ~ SDUSD Board of Education
