Parents and guardians play a crucial role in shaping the educational experience for their children. That’s why we encourage all families to participate in the 5Essentials Survey, an important tool that helps schools identify strengths and areas for growth.

What is the 5Essentials Survey?

The 5Essentials Survey gathers feedback from parents, students, and staff to assess five key areas that contribute to school success:

1. Effective Leaders – Strong leadership that fosters a positive school culture
2. Collaborative Teachers – Educators who work together to improve instruction
3. Involved Families – Strong school-home partnerships
4. Supportive Environment – A safe, welcoming, and engaging school climate
5. Ambitious Instruction – High expectations and rigorous academic opportunities

Why Should You Participate?

Your input helps school leaders make informed decisions to enhance student learning and well-being. A higher response rate provides a clearer picture of the school environment and ensures your voice is heard.

How to Take the Survey

The survey is confidential and only takes about 10 minutes to complete. Take the survey here before March 28, 2025 to share your thoughts.

Your feedback makes a difference! Let’s work together to ensure the best educational experience for all students. Take the 5Essentials Survey today!
