Hermiston School District Strategic Planning Business and Community Leader Survey

Thanks so much for spending some time filling out the Hermiston School District Strategic Planning Survey!

We’re kicking off a strategic planning journey to shape the future of our schools and make sure we’re always there for our students, families, staff, employers, and the whole community.

Since you’re a key player in our local business and community scene, your input is super valuable. The district really appreciates working with local employers, groups, and civic leaders to help our students shine and build a stronger Hermiston.

This survey should only take about 5-8 minutes to finish. Rest assured, your responses will stay private, and we’ll only look at them in a summary way.
