If you have children at different grade levels, you can complete the survey multiple times. Thank you in advance for taking the time to give us your feedback of how to improve the summer packet experience for you.  Click the following link to complete the brief survey: https://goo.gl/forms/wvhhceU9b0vKnnCG3.
