Comprehensive School Surveys- Due February 27th

Families,

If you have not take a few moments to complete the survey about our school and JCPS, please take a do so. As the principal of Jacob, I highly value your input, and will use this feedback to analyze what changes we may need to make as a school. I would also like to know what parts of our school you like and feel are working well for your child and family.

The survey is available in 8 different languages to support you!

You have until the end of this month to complete the survey, but if you wait you may forget, so go ahead and do it today!
