Please participate! Parents now have until Friday, June 8, to share their experiences and help APS obtain a snapshot of school climate, staff engagement, and student and family well-being in Arlington. The results will be posted to the APS website this summer, and will be used by APS and the Arlington Partnership for Children, Youth and Families (APCYF) to identify trends and areas for further action. Each school’s data will inform planning for the 2018-19 school year.

Through this survey, Arlington Public School (APS) parents and guardians can weigh in on critical school topics, including school climate and issues such as bullying, communications, safety, quality of instruction, responsiveness, collaboration, and cultural responsiveness.

If you have an email address on file with APS you will receive two final reminders this week with your survey invitation from Panorama Education (support@panoramaed.com), the independent educational survey research company that has been hired to administer the survey and compile the results. If you do not have an email address on file, you should have received a survey packet via US mail with a paper survey enclosed.Panorama Education is administering the survey and compiling all results, so all responses will be strictly confidential. Results will be available on the APS website this summer.

If you did not receive a survey packet or email, you may contact Panorama Education at support+arlingtonva@panoramaed.com.

APS looks forward to your feedback!
