Safe School Climate Survey

Notice
Dear Parents and/or Guardians,

Newtown Public Schools, in accordance with Connecticut statutes, administers an annual Safe School Climate Survey to students in grades 3 - 12, parents, and staff. The goal of this survey is to gather feedback on a number of parameters regarding our schools strengths and challenges in order to evaluate and improve school climate.

Our parent, staff and students surveys (grades 3-12) are administered by Panorama Education. Survey responses are managed by Panorama Education to ensure confidentiality, data privacy and security.

In early-March, you were sent a similar message from my office regarding The Student Survey that was administered to all students in school that same month. I am writing to you now with a reminder that all Parents and guardians are also asked to share their feedback through our Parent Survey which will be administered April 23 – May 11. This morning, on April 23rd, Panorama Education has emailed each parent an online Parent Survey link which will allow you to access the survey. The parent survey takes about 15-20 minutes to complete. Your feedback is important to us, and we hope that you will take the time to complete it.

If you have any questions about the administration of your child’s survey, please feel free to contact me.

Thank you in advance for working with us towards the continuous improvement of Newtown Public Schools.

Sincerely,

Jean Evans-Davila

Assistant Superintendent
