DeSoto ISD - LET'S GEAR UP (Linking Education to Success)
Senior Postsecondary Survey 2020-2021

Seniors: As a GEAR UP senior about to graduate, your insight will provide us with valuable information concerning your post-secondary plans and will allow us to provide you with the support and guidance you may need. Your responses will remain confidential and will only be used by the GEAR UP office to better assist you.

We are required to follow up with all GEAR UP graduates after graduation, so please include the best contact information you can to make this process as easy as possible. A valid email address is especially important as it will help to reduce the number of phone calls made to all graduates.

Thank you in advance for completing the following exit survey. Accuracy is extremely important and we encourage you to read each question completely before responding.
