Senior Exit Survey 2012

We just received the results of our senior exit survey from last spring's graduating class. This is an independent survey that is mailed in June from LifeTrack Services, Inc. to provide us with data used to make adjustments to our curriculum and to find areas of focus in improving the atmosphere of our building for student learning.  59 of 68 graduating seniors responded to the survey this summer.
