Dear Atkinson Families,

 

In collaboration with the TAG Parent Advisory Council (TAGAC), the Office of Talented and Gifted want to learn more about your understanding and experiences of TAG services in PPS. In an effort to gain comprehensive insight from the diverse families that we serve, we will be conducting a series of activities for parent and student participation. Please click the link below to take the survey.

A paper copy of the survey may be picked up at your neighborhood school if you are unable to complete it online.  The survey will be available until September 28, 2012. I thank you in advance for your participation and look forward to serving you.
