BCPS Puts Stakeholder Survey Online

Submit your thoughts on the Baltimore County Public Schools through Feb. 24.

From Baltimore County Public Schools: Baltimore County Public Schools students in Grades 3 – 12, and all parents/caregivers, community members, and staff, are encouraged to participate in the online BCPS Stakeholder Survey – available through Sunday, Feb. 24.

The survey is available on the BCPS website in 16 languages: Amharic, Arabic, Burmese, Chinese, English, French, Gujarati, Korean, Nepali, Russian, Spanish, Tagalog, Urdu, Uzbek, Vietnamese, and Yoruba. It is anonymous and takes five minutes or less to complete on a phone, tablet, or computer.

“We use Stakeholder Survey results to guide school improvement, identify staff training areas, improve safety, and identify emerging challenges," said BCPS Interim Superintendent Verletta White. “Your responses to this year’s survey can help us improve even more. We are especially interested in greater participation from parents/caregivers, community members, and secondary school students."

Individuals who fit into more than one category - for example, a staff person who is also the parent/caregiver of a BCPS student - can take the survey more than once in order to answer questions based on each of the categories. In addition, parents/caregivers who have students in more than one school are encouraged to take the survey specific to each school their children attend.

Parents/caregivers can choose to take the survey at their child’s school rather than at home or at a public library.
