Complete annual survey by July 10

Please share your perspective on your USN experience during the 2019-2020 school year by completing this Annual Parent Survey.
Dear USN families,
 
Here's a link to the Annual Survey for the academic year just concluded. Many of the questions remain constant, providing us an opportunity to benchmark across results from prior decades. You'll also find prompts related to the remote learning experience this spring and a final interrogative as we look toward resuming in August.
 
 
I've never seen our faculty so busy rethinking what we teach and how we teach and why we teach, responding to the historic imperative of this national moment for doing explicit anti-racist work with our students and our community. There will be plenty to share in that essential area, in addition to scenario planning for safe resumption of classes, throughout the summer weeks ahead.
 
Thank you, more than ever, for the support at home of our highest aspirations at school.
 
Yours in that spirit,
Vince  Durnan
Director
 
P.S. I'm hoping to have all survey data collected by July 10, if you please.
