Surveys

Below are links to two surveys that we need parents to complete.  These surveys will help the Mississippi Department of Education and our school district determine the needs of our community in regards to our schools and your child/children’s ability to navigate virtual learning.  Please complete these surveys by Monday, May 11, 2020, so that we may share the results with the Mississippi Department of Education and the Governor’s Office.  This information will help assist in planning for education resources for the future during this pandemic.  

Survey 1:  PSD Parent Survey

Survey 2:  MDE Parent Survey 

Census

As of April 21, almost half of Mississippi households have self-responded to the 2020 Census. 48.4% of Mississippi households have responded, below the national average of 50.7%. While the self-response rate is increasing, the growth rate is slow, and Mississippi is falling behind other states in response rates. Please take a moment to participate in the 2020 Census. Participation has a direct impact on congressional representation and federal funding available to support students within Mississippi schools. Families can complete the census online at MyCensus.gov.

Awards Celebrations 

End of the year awards celebrations will be conducted virtually the week of May 18th.  More information will be coming in next week’s update.
