We want to hear from you!

Research is clear that school-business partnerships provide multiple benefits to our students. The Caperton Center for School and Business Partnerships is committed to developing and sustaining school-business partnerships that promote student success.

During the summer of 2023, The Education Alliance's Caperton Center is collecting responses from both school officials and business representatives to gather your perspective about school-business partnerships.

Please help us by answering and submitting the brief survey questions listed below. We look forward to hearing your voice!
