PARENT ENGAGEMENT SURVEY Below is a link to our annual Parent Engagement Survey that we are asking all parents of students within Cassia County School District to fill out online. This survey is sent out and required by the Idaho State Department of Education each year to all districts in the state of Idaho. Survey results are intended to help us gain feedback and insights about each of our schools. When filling out the survey, please select the school that your child attends from the drop-down menu instead of selecting Cassia County School District itself. If you have students in multiple schools, we ask that you please complete the survey once for each of the schools your children attend. Completing the survey should only take about 10 minutes or less. We appreciate your willingness to participate!

Clarifying Statement: The Board of Trustees is constantly looking at ways to improve the educational system in Cassia County and to maximize the educational experience of our students. As a result, rumors often surface about various aspects of education in our district. At this time, the Board of Trustees has not made a decision on the type of schedule to be used for secondary schools throughout the district. They are not prepared to make any decisions regarding the 7-period day or the A/B schedule and will put in the necessary time to do the proper research and seek input prior to making such a decision.
