Today is Safer Internet Day! This day is globally recognized each year to celebrate positive digital citizenship, promote responsible online behavior, and raise awareness for a safer internet. Today serves as a friendly reminder for parents and adults to take a SMART approach in regards to a child's access to devices, screen time, social media use, and online gaming.
Parent opinions matter! We have implemented changes at MPHS over the past two years based on the input we get from parents on this survey.
The parent response rate is currently 9% for our parents. Thank you to those of you who have responded to the survey. We need 20% of our parents to respond in order to receive a report. Our school goal is a 25% parent response rate.
I am inviting any parent that has not yet participated to help us reach our goal by taking the survey! We use the data from the parent report to help improve the school. Without ample parent participation, we do not receive data back to act on. Your opinions matter and we want to use your opinions to improve our school!
Every parent/guardian is invited to take the survey!
The survey window will close on March 31, 2023, so please plan survey administration accordingly.

Thank you for helping us make our school a better place.
Sincerely,
Heather Fricke, MPHS Principal
