Parents, this is a reminder about the Illinois 5Essentials Survey for you all. This opportunity will allow you to share your thoughts on the important elements of school effectiveness in a survey about your child’s school. We need at least 20% of Lebanon School District parents to complete this survey in order for a parent supplement report to be generated. The parent data will not be reported on the State Report Card. Your participation in the parent portion of the survey will help us understand the conditions at your child’s school and guide improvement. Your identity and survey responses will be kept completely confidential and will never be connected to you or your child. The Parent Survey Supplement can be completed up until April 2nd. To take the survey please visit https://survey.5-essentials.org/Illinois/ and select the appropriate survey to begin.
