Portrait of a Graduate Staff Survey
We need your help! Starting with the end in mind, Kearney School District is working to create a picture of the key skills our graduates need for success. This "Portrait of a Graduate" will be developed with input from students, parents, graduates, teachers, school personnel, businesses and community members. Once complete, it will serve as our "north star" for future efforts and direction. Please provide your thoughtful feedback to the following questions. The survey should take 2-4 minutes to complete. Responses to this survey will be collected through the close of business on Monday, Dec. 13. Visit www.ksdr1.net/portraitofagraduate to learn more and for ongoing updates. Thank you!
