Our district values feedback!
This January, we will be asking families, staff, and students to take a brief survey to tell us about their experiences in school. The survey will begin on January 6th, 2025, and close on January 24th, 2025.
Hillsborough County Public Schools mission is to provide an education and the supports that enable each student to excel as a successful and responsible citizen. To this end, HCPS has adopted Marzano’s High Reliability Schools Framework to drive excellence across our district.
Now we need YOUR feedback on how it’s going. Our goal is to have 80% or more of our Spartan families participate in the survey. Use the link below (also emailed directly to you) to complete this important tool that we will use to improve our school and meet the needs of our students, faculty and families.
