Mankato Area Public Schools is beginning an exciting and important project to redesign our secondary schools (grades 6-12). We want to ensure that our schools are not only meeting the needs of today's students but are also preparing them for a future we can only imagine.

Click here to participate in a survey to help MAPS better understand your thoughts on the secondary school experience, and how we can create a more effective and future-focused learning environment.

In order to learn more about student experiences at school, we will be asking for your child’s feedback via an online survey they will be completing at school. The survey shouldn’t take more than 20-30 minutes to complete. Click here for the full Panorama Parent Survey Letter
