Hello everyone, In order to have the best schools that we can, the first step is getting feedback from all stakeholders. As community members, your feedback is vital to assist us in creating the best learning environments for our students. Please help us out by filling out the following survey. The more we know how to improve, the better experience we will be able to set up for our students, teachers, and staff. If you have already taken another one of our surveys, we invite you to take this as well as it has different questions on it. We would love it if every person in our community could give us feedback. 2021 Community Survey https://bit.ly/GPS2021CommunitySurvey Click on the link above. Once there, click on the “Take this survey” button. You only need to take the survey once. Survey Close date: July 9, 2021 Paper Survey: If you would like to fill out a paper survey, please come to the district office (DCHS Merrill Entrance). Thank you!
