CONDITIONS FOR LEARNING SURVEY...Middle School staff will administer an annual school climate and culture survey called Conditions for Learning to students the week of April 4. This survey administration is required by the state’s plan to meet a federal law called the Every Student Succeeds Act.  All Iowa public school districts will use the Conditions for Learning Survey to improve safety, student engagement, and the overall learning environment so that all Iowa students have optimum conditions for learning. Student participation in the survey is highly encouraged, but is voluntary and will take approximately 20 minutes to complete.  Please see the link for additional information regarding the survey.
