60 focus groups and counting

MAHALO NUI LOA to the many students, educators, parents, and community members that have participated so far in focus groups and the 線上調查 for the state’s DOE/BOE戰略計劃 for education. We have completed 60 focus groups on six islands, and hundreds have provided their input through the online survey.

By contributing your voice and opinion, you are helping to identify supports and strategies that will help us all come together to support our youth with their aspirations for the future. Please forward this survey link to others to encourage them to add their voice and ideas — we have the survey and focus groups occurring statewide through May 31: hiqualityed.tumblr.com
