NUAMES Course Surveys and School Climate Survey Parent Notification
We want to inform Parent/Guardians that throughout the school year, your NUAMES student will participate in various surveys conducted within their classes, coursework and NUAMES administers the USBE School Climate Survey to students and stakeholders. These surveys are designed to gather valuable feedback on their learning experiences, NUAMES instruction, school environment and overall stakeholder satisfaction. This feedback is crucial for us to enhance our programs and better support your child’s education. Participation is voluntary, results are anonymous and are kept confidential. The law requires parents to opt-in to participating in surveys, such as the School Climate Survey, during the school year. We appreciate your feedback and support in helping us create a positive and effective learning environment.
