Re: Language arts curriculum review survey

Our school district is reviewing the language arts program (reading, writing, speaking, listening and viewing). We need information from parents regarding the current program. The information collected from the surveys will help us determine strengths and limitations. Please complete the survey at the link below. The link will remain open until November 30, 2010.

Thank you in advance for your thoughts and participation.
