Return to school survey

 Hello,


This fall, I presented at several School Committee meetings a plan to bring more students back to school. That plan called to bring back k-3 students full time and to adjust the schedule for grades 4-12 for more in person instruction. After those meetings we saw a surge in positive cases that put a pause on our plans and plans everywhere in The Commonwealth in moving forward. In the last 3 months several positive things have occurred to cause us to alter our original plan. This new information has caused us to be able to pivot from our original plan this fall and potentially be able to bring back more students to school this year.  


In order for us to be able to finalize our plan, we need to gather some information from you. I ask that you take a few minutes to fill out this survey. Please fill out one survey per student as we need this data by school and student. Over the 7 to 10 days I will share out more information with you.

People want answers and information so they can plan their lives; I fully understand that and I am cognizant of it. I also know that any of the three options that are selected will not be easy for some people to make work; again I am fully aware of that and understand that as a Superint

Back to School Survey July 15, 2020

Greetings, Over the last few weeks we have been working on creating a Blueprint for returning back to school in September. The purpose of this survey is just for us to gather information to continue planning for a safe, smooth, and successful return to school. There are 4 areas that I would like to get feedback on from you; will your student return back to school in September for in-person learning, will your student return to school in a hybrid model, will your student take the bus to school, and pre-school tuition. Please note that your responses are not binding and may change as more information becomes available to us in the next few weeks. Please fill out one survey per student so that we can have accurate information. The link to the survey is attached below. Thank you for your help with this. Paul https://forms.gle/hjSGZQSa4sTM88HD9
