Dear Parents,
As you may know, we are starting the process of the Leader In Me which is a program that encourages leadership and responsibility in our students based on the 7 Habits of Highly Effective People.
To assist, we need you as a parent/guardian to take this short survey (which is translatable into several languages).
Thank you.
