Board of Education NewsFrom Your Board – Important Survey Request
Dear Howard-Suamico Families, We have been given the opportunity to better align the needs of the Howard-Suamico School District with community values as we work to address the District’s financial challenges. To that end, the HSSD Board of Education is asking adult community members to participate in a survey to assist in future referendum planning efforts. Information gained from this survey will be used to evaluate options that meet the community’s needs, are financially responsible, and move the school district forward. Visit www.HSSDsurvey.org This survey will take an estimated 15 minutes to complete and can be accessed until October 1, 2017. A reminder postcard will also be mailed to all Howard and Suamico residents next week. We respect your time and value your participation. Your answers will be anonymous. You can also request a paper copy and a prepaid return envelope at any school office or by calling 920-662-7878.
