We are continuing our focus on HRS Level 1, to ensure a safe, supportive and collaborative learning environment on each campus. As part of this process, we are collecting feedback from our parents and students with a short survey. All parents, and students in grades 3-12, will have the opportunity to complete the survey in March.

The survey should take about 15 minutes to complete.
