NJ School Climate Survey - Fall 2024
The North Plainfield School District is participating in survey data collection using the New Jersey School Climate Improvement (NJ SCI) Survey to help obtain multiple perspectives on aspects of school climate. Collecting data is important for understanding strengths and needs in our school and how it feels to be a member of the school community.
Please see the below letters explaining the parent and student surveys. Parents are able to take the survey by scanning the QR code below or clicking the image below. The password is 'parents'. We appreciate your input!
