2013 School Parent Survey

All schools in the Anoka-Hennepin School District will conduct Parent Attitude and Satisfaction Surveys (PASS) in May and June. This year, surveys are available to take online. You should receive a letter in the mail with instructions on completing the online survey. If you do not have access to a computer, you may request a paper copy of the survey by calling our school at 763-506-5200.

This is the tenth year schools have conducted the Parent Survey, which is a project directed by the Anoka-Hennepin School Board. Results are used by schools for school improvement planning.

Anoka Hennepin is offering unique STEM (Science, technology, Engineering and Math) summer enrichment opportunities.
