Dear Parents and Guardians,
I hope you are well and are looking forward to the weekend. I shared in my previous letter that we would be reaching out to you through a survey about your intentions regarding school reopening this fall. This is information that all school districts in Connecticut are collecting to help plan for their reopening and have been required to do so by Governor Ned Lamont and the Connecticut State Department of Education. The survey is very short and we ask that you complete it by noon on Wednesday, July 15th. We understand there are still many unanswered questions and we are working hard to resolve them and define the plan details through ongoing subcommittee meetings. The data obtained through this survey is a snapshot at this time to assist in our planning. I want to assure you that our plans for reopening will comply with the Governor and the CSDE's guidelines for safely reopening Connecticut's schools. In addition, any answers you provide are non-binding in any way.
We ask that you be as honest as you can given the information we have provided and we understand that circumstances or your level of comfort may change causing you to reconsider your plans.
Finally, we are asking you to complete a survey for each of your children identifying them by first and last name, school and grade. Survey link: https://forms.gle/zSp2MzNrbs4cukSx9
That information is strictly for our use to help us allocate our resources where they will be most appropriate and will not be shared in our response to the Governor and the CSDE.
Thank you always for your support and flexibility.
Best,
Melissa Bavaro-Grande
Superintendent
