We are working hard to be sure your student is prepared for life after high school. Your input on this survey will help us better understand your needs and your student’s needs as they relate to Postsecondary and Workforce Readiness (PWR). Your responses are anonymous, meaning your name will not be associated with your answers. The results of this survey will be used for informational purposes and will help us make decisions about programs and services that will benefit you and your student.
NOTE: Throughout this survey you will see the word "postsecondary." Please keep in mind the term “postsecondary” means “AFTER high school.”
There will be an open-ended question at the end of the survey for you to share any thoughts you may have about the survey or career development and postsecondary planning.
Any questions about this survey can be directed to Dr. Tracy Speaker-Gerstheimer, tspeakerg@portageps.org.

Dear Parent/Caregiver,
As part of our commitment to continuous improvement, we are conducting a survey in partnership with Studer Education to monitor our progress in creating a positive school experience for you and your child(ren). Your feedback is crucial in helping us identify areas for recognition and improvement.
The survey will ask you to select the school your child(ren) attends. Once you complete the survey for 1 school, you will have the option to provide feedback on another school, if you have a child at another school in the district. Providing feedback to each school should take approximately 10-15 minutes to complete. We encourage you to complete it in one sitting, as your responses will be saved once you click submit.
Take the Parent/Caregiver Survey
The survey is scheduled for 4/6/2026 through 4/24/2026.
To maintain confidentiality of the Parent/Caregiver Survey, our partners at Studer Education will be administering the survey, managing the data collection, and aggregating the data to provide results reports to leaders.
Thank you for your partnership,
