Dear parent/guardian:
Lockport City School District is conducting a voluntary survey about school climate. The survey will be administered to students in grades 3 through 12 during regular school hours during the week of November 18, 2024. It will ask students about their perceptions on topics such as student engagement, school environment, and school safety.
The information your child provides will help the school and district gain insight into the current school climate. Only authorized personnel will have access to your child’s individual responses, which will be combined with those of other students to create climate reports. These reports will not identify any individual or their specific answers.
If you do not want your child to participate in this survey, please print this email, complete the bottom section, sign it, and return this form to the school by November 15, 2024. You can also find the form under the “News” section on our website: www.lockportschools.org.
If you sign and return the bottom portion of this email, it means your child will not participate in the survey and will be asked to report to a designated place in the school (for example, the library) while the survey is being administered.
If you agree to allow your child to take the survey, no further action is required. Should you have any questions about this study, about your child’s participation, or would like to see a copy of the student survey, please contact your child’s principal.
Sincerely,
Mathis Calvin III, Ed.D.
Superintendent of Schools
