Parent Learning Environment Surveys are here!

Dear WJPS Parents and Guardians,

This spring, the New York City Department of Education will conduct the second annual Learning Environment Survey of parents, guardians, teachers and students.  Your support in filling out the parent/guardian survey is very important to WJPS because your input helps Ms. Schneider and school administrators formulate policies that are important to you.  The survey results also count for 10% of our yearly Progress Report.

We have your survey at school.  There will be many opportunities to fill it out at school during Parent/Teacher Student Portfolio Conferences, PTA Meetings, Parent Workshops, and whenever you are at school.

When you turn in your completed survey for us to mail for you, your child(ren) will receive a "Jeans Day" coupon that he/she can use at any time.  All names will be entered into a drawing for an ipod.

WJPS is a new small school, and your voice really counts.  We have come together as a community so many times this year, and I know we can do it again by sending in as many surveys as possible.

Here are the dates of upcoming parent meetings when you can fill out the survey:

-March 19:  Afternoon and evening Portfolio Workshop with Ms. Schneider (click here for more information)

-March 24:  Evening PTA meeting (click here for more information)

-April 3 & 4:  Afternoon and evening Parent-Teacher-Student Portfolio Conferences

-April 9: Writing Workshop with Ms. Schneider

-April 14: Evening PTA meeting

If you have any questions or need more information, please call me at school 718-461-2219 or send an email to hreed2@schools.nyc.gov or click on the "comment" button at the end of this post.  Please sign your email.

Regards,
Helen
