HONOLULU — The Hawai‘i State Department of Education is encouraging parents to complete a survey to help schools set priorities for improving programs and services.
Schools will be mailing surveys this month or asking students to take the surveys home. Parents whose children are enrolled in grades four through nine and 11 will be asked to complete the survey and return it to the school in a prepaid envelope by March 30.
“Parental feedback is critical for schools and complex areas to measure the effectiveness of their programs, refine services and make adjustments to meet the needs of all students,” state Schools Superintendent Kathryn Matayoshi said in a statement.
Teachers and students from the selected grades will fill out separate surveys at school. School personnel also will be asked to complete similar surveys.
Individual survey responses are confidential. Overall survey results for each school should be available at the schools by the end of the academic year. The reports will also be posted on the Internet at http://arch.k12.hi.us.
