Dear Parent or Guardian of a GATE student,

We are conducting a survey of parent/guardian opinions about the GATE program. This survey addresses the educational expectations of each individual student. If you have more than one GATE student in SCUSD, you may wish to take this survey for each child.

The GATE Department will use this information as feedback in the planning, development, and delivery of quality programs for our gifted and talented children. The feedback and data from the survey will not be used outside the GATE Department.

THANK YOU FOR YOUR SUPPORT!

Kari Hanson-Smith, GATE Resource Teacher
