APS Parents Encouraged to Participate in Georgia Parent Survey between November 2013 and January 2014

Atlanta Public Schools parents are encouraged to participate in the Georgia Parent Survey administered by the Georgia Department of Education. Data from the Georgia Parent Survey will be used along with the Georgia Student Health Survey and the Georgia School Personnel Survey to calculate the School Climate Star Rating within the College and Career Ready Performance Index (CCRPI).  The Georgia Parent Survey will be open through Friday, January 31, 2014.

Parents are able to complete the survey using their personal computers, smartphones or electronic tablets.  For parents that do not have access to the Internet, school administrators will allow parents to complete the Georgia Parent Survey at school.

The Georgia Parent Survey has 20 questions and should take no more than 5 – 10 minutes to complete it.  Survey responses are anonymous and will be submitted directly to the Georgia Department of Education for analysis.  Data results from the Georgia Parent Survey will not be available to the public and will not be posted online.
