Student Voice Survey - PARENT WAIVER
Dear Parent or Guardian
During the 2015 -2016 school year, your child will have the opportunity to complete the Student Voice survey. This anonymous assessment allows students an opportunity to give feedback on specific aspects of his or her classroom experience. The survey takes approximately 10 – 20 minutes to complete and will be conducted during the school day.
The purpose of the survey is to provide an opportunity for all Kentucky students to have a voice in their classroom experience. Survey results are intended for the teacher to use for self-reflection and as a tool to help guide professional practice. Teachers want to know if their students feel sufficiently challenged, engaged, and comfortable asking them for help.
If you DO NOT want your child to take the Student Voice survey, please complete, sign, and return this form to your child’s school by _Monday, Feb 15, 2016_.
I DO NOT want my son/daughter to participate in the Student Voice survey.
