Superintendent Notes for May 2012
______________________________________________________________________________
GRADE YOUR SCHOOL and STAFF – Parents and students, Hanover School District would like to know what you think about our staff, administration, board of education, and overall education process. Your feedback is very important to us, and it the information received will be used to make Hanover School District even better than it already is. If you have more than one child in either the same or different grade, and you have the time, please fill out a survey for each; if not, please complete at least one. There is ABSOLUTELY NO tracking of identities, and the information will only be seen and compiled by the Superintendent and his assistant; so please be as honest with your answers as possible. Surveys will need to be completed by May 9, 2012.
*Surveys for Prairie Heights will be sent home with students and not online.

**************************************************************
Parent’s Opinions Needed – Currently, Early Release Days are used for teacher training and professional development which is mandatory by the State of Colorado. As you may know, many of our teachers are coaches or activity sponsors which means they oftentimes miss out on this valuable training time, students have to find a way back to the school later in the day for their regular scheduled practices, or students don’t show up for school at all.
In preparing the schedule for the next school year, we would like to change these training days from Early Release Days, which release at 12:25 p.m., to Late Start Days (2-hr delays), which will start at 9:45 a.m., with hopes of alleviating some of the above mentioned issues; however, we would like to hear from parents before making this decision.
Please provide your opinion through this quick survey. Click here to take survey
