PARENT SURVEY RESULTS
May 2020
Out of the 743 families who participated in our district survey, 1353 students were repre-
sented across the district K-12. Parent Survey data was disseminated by the district Admin-
istrative Team and Task Force Teams to identify preferences for teaching and learning during
the 2020/2021 school year. The results of the survey are below.
Parents Preferred Method of Instruction for the 2020-2021 School Year
The survey asked the parents to choose their preferred method of instruction for
the coming school year between fully on-campus, hybrid, and fully online.
The chart displays these parental preferences with 53% preferring on-campus, 36%
preferring hybrid, and 11% preferring fully online.

PARENT SURVEY RESULTS
May 2020
Parental Comfort Level with a Fully
On-Campus Instruction for the 2020-
2021 School Year
Parents were asked to rate their comfort
level with sending their students to a fully
on-campus instructional setting. A rating of
1 represents “Extremely Uncomfortable”
and 5 represents “Completely Comforta-
ble.”
The results show that the majority (57%) of
parents report a level of comfort (either 4
or 5), where around 20% report a level of
discomfort (either 1 or 2).
Parental Comfort Level with a Hy-
brid Instruction Model for the 2020-
2021 School Year
Parents were asked to rate their comfort
level with sending their students to a hy-
brid instructional setting, where portions
of the instruction happen on campus with
the remainder in an online setting.
These results show a distribution of com-
fort throughout our parents. A third of our
parents (33%) report a level of discomfort
(1 or 2) and slightly more parents (39%)
report a level of comfort (4 or 5) with the
hybrid schedule.
Parental Comfort Level with a Fully
Online Instruction for the 2020-2021
School Year
Parents were asked to rate their comfort
level with their students participating in a
fully online instructional setting. A rating
of 1 represents “Extremely Uncomforta-
ble” and 5 represents “Completely Com-
fortable.”
The results show that the majority (61%)
of parents report a level of discomfort (1
or 2), where around 21% report a level of
comfort in an online setting (4 or 5).
