Illinois schools are required to survey parents, teachers, and students each year to gather information about the school's climate. This survey is the 5 Essentials Survey. The information collected will be presented on the Illinois School Report Card. This data will not be connected to you or your child.
Parents, please take 15 minutes of your time and complete the survey at: https://survey.5-essentials.org/Illinois/
