Family Notification of Student Survey

Family Notification of Student Survey

We will be conducting a new student survey at Barrow Arts and Sciences Academy. The survey, which will be open from January 26 through January 30, 2026 includes 73 questions. It should take students approximately 25 minutes to complete. The survey asks about the quality of teaching and learning, the school environment, support for students, how commonly students in the school face challenges (such as being bullied), and student risk behaviors (such as self-harm and substance abuse). Names cannot be tied to survey answers in any way, and students can skip any question. The data will help leaders improve the school.

The Protection of Pupil Rights Amendment (PPRA), 20 U.S.C. § 1232(c)(1)(A) gives you the right to review a copy of the student survey questions. You may review the survey questions at this link. Additionally, you may request that the school provide a copy of the survey questions for your review. There will also be an opportunity for parents/guardians to participate in a survey January 26-30, 2026.

The PPRA also gives you the right to opt your child out of participating in the survey. If you do not wish for your child to participate, please complete the attached letter, sign, and return it to the school by January 23, 2026.
