While WBSD7 has conducted several "community" surveys this year for other purposes, such as assessing overall district communication and gathering feedback on potential school boundaries, this survey is specifically for parents of students enrolled in WBSD7 during the 2024-2025 school year. The questions focus on your experience within your student's specific school, ensuring a more targeted and relevant assessment. Thank you for your participation.
