2024 Spring Perception Survey Results
I would like to take a moment to extend my gratitude to our families, teachers, paraeducators, support staff, and volunteers for an exceptional school year. Your collaboration has been instrumental in creating nurturing learning environments that emphasize growth and development. I am incredibly proud of the collective efforts of our school community to support our students.
In May, we asked parents and guardians to participate in our Spring Perception Survey to share their insights on school climate, instruction, leadership, and communication. The feedback was overwhelmingly positive. We appreciate everyone who participated! Your input enables us to recognize our strengths and identify areas where we can improve. You can review the feedback from parents and guardians by clicking on 2024 Spring Perception Survey Results.
It is a privilege to serve as your superintendent, and I am grateful for the opportunity to work with such a remarkable community. Together, we will continue to inspire and empower our students to reach their highest potential.
Sincerely,
Dr. Dan Callaghan
Superintendent
