The Department invites parents who have a child with an Individualized Education Program (IEP) to participate in a short survey to see how well your child’s school is partnering with you and promoting involvement in your child’s education.
The survey information is used to improve parental involvement in the special education process and to increase outcomes for children with disabilities. It is important to note that your responses are recorded anonymously and are not linked to your child.
ABOUT THE SURVEY
The survey consists of 11 items in family-friendly language. Parents with more than one child receiving special education services should submit one survey for each child.
- The Parent Involvement Survey is multiple-choice and takes less than 10 minutes to complete.
- Responses are anonymous and not linked to you or your child.
- Provides you with the opportunity to complete one survey per child receiving special education and related services per school year.
- A survey is offered by your child’s public school after the initial or annual IEP meeting.
- Ensures objectivity by being processed by a third party. Is available to be completed from July 1, 2024 to June 30, 2025.
