School Climate Survey Information for Parents Survey link: https://bit.ly/4dUXVPX Our highest priority at the Huntsville School District is ensuring the safety, well-being, and success of our students and staff. Seeking insight from all stakeholders provides us with an opportunity to work together and contribute to a shared school vision. School climate refers to the quality and character of school life, and research has shown that it has a very sizable impact on student learning. The School Climate Survey serves as a tool to help administrators gain an in-depth understanding of our school climate and how campus administration can best meet the needs of our students, families, faculty, and staff. Participants will be asked about their perceptions of student engagement, school environment, and safety. The Google Form Survey linked below can be accessed online from May 24, 2024, to June 7, 2024. The survey results, which are entirely anonymous and will not identify any person or their responses, will help our district improve student relationships, learning conditions, and the school's overall environment. As always, our ultimate goal is to continually foster student growth and achievement and ensure our students, faculty, and staff's sense of well-being. Your participation in the School Climate Survey is not only valuable but crucial. Your insights and perspectives as parents are essential in shaping our school environment. We encourage you to take the time to fill out the survey. Please remember that it must be completed online via the link listed above by June 7, 2024.
