Dear Families, 
 
The Hingham Public Schools Technology Task Force is in the process of gathering data from various stakeholders, including students, families and staff, to inform the creation of a multi-year district technology plan.  The following survey, designed for caregivers of HMS and HHS students, will yield important data to determine the resources and supports that will best support technology integration.
 
If you have multiple students at HMS and HHS, please complete the survey once to describe your family's overall experience with technology at the secondary level.  If you have additional children attending HPS elementary schools, please also complete the elementary technology survey, which can be found at the attached link.

Sincerely,
 
Margaret Adams, Superintendent of Schools
Katie Roberts, Interim Assistant Superintendent for Teaching and Learning
Joe Andrews, Director of Technology
Andrew Hoey, Director of Social Studies
Dave Jewett, Director of Mathematics
Greg Lamothe, Principal Plymouth River
