Pittsburgh Public School officials are seeking input from district families about their children’s experiences last school year. 

The goal of the survey, which is open until July 31, is to collect perspectives and experiences of parents and guardians to provide the best possible learning environment for students. The survey will help officials better understand the needs and expectations of students and their families.

“We value the input of parents and guardians, as they play a crucial role in the achievement of our students,” Superintendent Wayne Walters said in a statement. “The information gathered from the survey will inform the District’s work to improve student outcomes and experiences.”

The survey covers various topics such as academic support, resources, communication and engagement with teachers and staff, school safety, access to technology, special education supports and health initiatives.
