Dear Shawsheen Families, Students, & Staff,
As part of our continual school improvement efforts, we will be administering a school climate survey to staff, students, and parents/guardians in May of this school year. We will be using the questionnaires from the U.S. Department of Education School Climate Survey (EDSCLS), but we will be collecting the data locally, instead of through their online platform. Click on the following link to learn more about the EDSCLS, and to view the questionnaires: ED School Climate Surveys (EDSCLS) | IES. All survey submissions will be anonymous.
Surveys will be administered to students during scheduled times at school as follows:
Grades 9 & 11 = during the week of May 4-8
Grades 10 & 12 = during the week of May 11-15
If you do not want your student to participate in this year's School Climate survey, you must submit the May 2026 SVTHS Student School Climate Survey Opt-Out Form by Wednesday, April 29, 2026.
A link to the parent/guardian survey will be shared with parents/guardians of current SVTHS students on Friday, May 1st. Parents/guardians will have until Sunday, May 17 to complete the survey.
Sincerely,
Jessica Cook, Principal
