Priest Lake Community Charter School Interest Survey
The Priest Lake Education Foundation (PLEF) has been tasked with exploring the possibility of establishing a public charter school in the Priest Lake area. As part of this effort, and to ensure confidentiality, PLEF has hired an educational consultant who will serve as a third party to assist with the research, planning, and community engagement process. Additionally, PLEF would like to determine whether the community prefers a private charter school or a district-authorized charter school housed within the existing school building. 

After many years of levy struggles and uncertainty regarding funding and potential school closures, PLEF recognized the importance of gathering information from the community to inform long-term solutions for the families and students of the Priest Lake community. 

The purpose of this survey is to gather feedback from families with children in the Priest Lake community. Your input will help us assess community interest and guide our next steps. The survey should take about five minutes to complete, and all responses will remain anonymous unless you choose to share your contact information.
