The Georgia Department of Education Parent Satisfaction Survey for Special Education is now open through May 31, 2026, and we would love to hear from our families.
This survey provides an opportunity for parents and guardians to share what is going well and where improvements can be made. Your feedback helps guide decisions at both the district and state levels and strengthens how we support students with disabilities.
Last year, 352 parents participated, and we hope to build on that number this year. Every response truly makes a difference.
As you visit our schools for meetings and events, please take a few minutes to complete the survey. A link has been shared with families of our students with disabilities through email and Infinite Campus.
Thank you for partnering with us to support our students!
