APS BOE Election: Who Are You Voting For?

The Atlanta Public Schools is currently conducting a Back-to-School Parent Survey to gather thoughts and opinions on the back-to-school experience this year. Feedback will be used to make improvements to the back-to-school readiness process next summer.

The survey can be taken here:

2013 Back-to-School Parent Survey 

2013 Back to School Parent Survey (Spanish)

What members of the Board of Education who ultimately review the results of the survey remains to be determined, as Election Day, Nov. 5, 2013, is just four weeks away. So we’re taking our own informal survey here at Patch.
