Fall 2018 Parent/Guardian Survey | Encuesta para Padres y Tutores otoño 2018
Newark Unified School District strives for continuous improvement in our service to students and families. We achieve this through evaluating our outcomes, identifying strengths, developing recommendations for improvement, and refining our practices.
One of the ways we evaluate our strengths and find areas for improvement is by asking parents/guardians about their experiences and recommendations.
Please take a few minutes to provide us feedback that will inform our areas of focus for improvement, our Local Control and Accountability Plan (LCAP), and our future practices.
El Distrito Escolar Unificado de Newark se esfuerza para la mejora continua en nuestro servicio a los estudiantes y familias. Logramos esto evaluando nuestros resultados, identificando fortalezas, desarrollando recomendaciones para mejora y perfeccionando nuestras prácticas.

Por favor tome unos minutos para darnos comentario que informa nuestras áreas de atención para mejora, el Plan de Control Local de rendición de cuentas (LCAP) y nuestras futuras prácticas.
