Speak Up Survey 2020

This year, Poway Unified School District is participating in the national Speak Up Research Initiative to seek feedback from teachers, students, staff, and parents to help us improve learning for all students. Since 2003, over 5 million  K-12 teachers, students, staff, and parents have shared their ideas about education technology through the Speak Up online surveys, and we need your ideas too. The survey is free to us and will be used to help us plan for the future so we need to hear from all of you.
The survey window is open from January 13 - January 22, 2020.

  Classroom Interruptions

Please be aware the teachers have a lot of work to do with your students and we ask for your help in reducing the number of interruptions to the classrooms.  Our office staff has been instructed not to interrupt the classroom during the school day unless there is a family emergency.  You can help by discussing with your child alternate pick up plans for the days you may be running later or when the weather is rainy or alternate plans in case lunch/homework/instruments are forgotten at home.  The office staff cannot guarantee that these items will get to the students in time.  We greatly appreciate your support in helping us create a successful environment for our Valley students.
