HANOVER SURVEY
We need your input again, please. We hope all families will participate. Topics on this important survey include school appearance, finances, technology, instruction, as well as attitudes about safety, transportation, climate, and communication.
Please make every effort to fill out this very important survey. Each year, we analyze the results of the survey. Your opinions count and we will thoughtfully and purposefully take your ideas to make our school a better place for children. The parent Hanover survey is available in English and Spanish. The parent link will take you to the landing page where they will be able to select the language of choice. Parent Survey Link
