• The survey takes less than five minutes to complete. Your time is very much appreciated.

• Your responses are confidential, and honest feedback will guide our efforts to create a supportive school environment for everyone.

• If you have children at more than one Lakeview school, please complete a survey for each school using the survey link specific to that building.

Parent Survey

Thank you for your continued support and partnership. Together, we can make our school the best it can be!

As a reminder, at no time should parents be dropping students off in the bus circle behind LHS. For the safety of all students, please drop students off at any of the points out front - the drop off circle and the D lot are for parent dropoffs.

To help us reduce classroom interruptions, we ask that, whenever possible, you call ahead to excuse your student for appointments so a pass can be prepared for your student. Not only can we get students ready for you to pick up in a timely manner, getting them a pass ahead of time prevents us from calling into classrooms and interrupting instruction.

If your student is sick, please encourage them to head to the attendance office to call home instead of using their cell phone. Other than being against school rules, it also makes the process more efficient by eliminating the need to have you take multiple calls.

When calling, please provide the following information:

• Student’s full name and spelling

• Grade level

• Your relationship to the student

• Reason for the absence

Thank you for helping us reduce classroom interruptions and allowing our Spartans to thrive!
