Now that distance learning has been in place for some weeks, it’s a good time to assess how well it’s going at home for families.
What is working well, and what areas of improvement should you prioritize to help parents?
To start, we’ve created the Parent Survey Template in English and Spanish below, to help any school or district survey their parents and find out.
ParentSquare schools can also find the form as a template in the ParentSquare platform, ready for use.
