2017-2018

Dear Williston Parents,

You are an essential partner in the education of your children.  As we strive to improve the programs we offer every year, your input is important.  Please take a few minutes to provide us with feedback on ways you feel we can enhance the education of your children.

The information you provide us through this survey is extremely useful as we set goals and create work plans for the upcoming year.  Administrators, teachers, teams and committee members all use this information to guide their work. 

If you have children in more than one house, please complete a separate survey for each house. If your children are in the same house, it is your choice whether your feedback can be best represented in one or more surveys.

Thank you in advance for your time and ideas. To have your valuable input included, please complete this survey by Friday, June 1st.

Sincerely,

Greg Marino
Lead Principal
