Mode of Instruction Survey: The health and safety of our students, staff, and families is our most important goal as we move forward together. This survey is being used to collect information about your current comfort level in sending your child/children to school on September 8th, 2020. This information will allow us to plan effectively for your student. PLEASE COMPLETE BY JULY 30th @ 4:00 P.M. https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLScae2V0OftEIMWFDIUIpnbZk1R423c-pbcu50TAYafqpBnmhQ/viewform?usp=pp_url Please complete a separate form for each school-aged child in your family because your comfort level for one situation/setting might be different than another.
