Today is the Last Day to Submit Your Boston Public Schools Survey

The following is a letter from Beacon Hill resident Tim Cook:

Many families move out of Beacon Hill because they don't feel they can send their kids to a good local public school. Boston Public Schools is doing a survey to figure out a better assignment process and it is essential that they hear from Beacon Hill residents.

Please take their 5 minute BPS survey today (even if your kids are not at a public school). The data set will be closed on Monday – so please do this ASAP.

Ideally, Beacon Hill families should have a choice of quality public schools that are walking distance from our neighborhood.

If you agree - please make sure you select - walking distance as part of the key criteria for a school - along with whichever other factors you believe are important.
