Congratulations to Gabriella Layne on another awesome performance this past weekend with the Delaware All-State Senior Band. Gabby was 1 of 77 students who passed the audition process and gained acceptance into the group. After spending two days rehearsing in Wilmington, the students put on a spectacular concert with guest conductor Dr. Chad Nicholson on Saturday night. The concert was fantastic, all of the students did a wonderful job! This concert was an excellent way to end Music in Our Schools Month. Thank you to Gabby and all the student musicians that make Lake Forest an excellent place for Music Education.

Querido Padre/Madre/Guardián:
Adjunto encontrará una encuesta sobre la escuela de su niño(a). Le estamos pidiendo a usted que complete la encuesta para que nos ayude a saber que piensan los padres, madres y guardianes sobre nuestra escuela. Sus pensamientos e ideas son muy importantes. A través de esta encuesta, utilizaremos sus experiencias y opiniones para ayudarnos a desarrollar las áreas en buen funcionamiento y trabajar para mejor las débiles.
Solo le tomará 15 minutos para completar la encuesta. Si usted tiene más de un niño/a en esta escuela, por favor complete la encuesta basándose solamente en las experiencias de uno de sus hijos/as.
La Encuesta Clima Escolar de Delaware fue desarrollada por el programa Delaware Positive Behavior Support Initiative (una asociación entre el Departamento de Educación de Delaware y el Center for Disabilities Studies en la Universidad de Delaware) No hay ninguna información de identificación personal en el cuestionario, de esa manera nadie sabrá cómo usted contestó las preguntas. Las encuestas completadas se mandarán a la Universidad de Delaware donde la información será compilada en un reporte para la escuela.
Al completar la encuesta, haga lo siguiente:
• Responda todas las preguntas
• Marque una respuesta que mejor describa lo que cree sobre la situación descrita.
• Complete la encuesta antes del 29 de marzo de 2024
• Complete solo una encuesta por niño/a
Si tiene alguna pregunta sobre esta encuesta, por favor siéntanse libre de comunicarse conmigo o con la maestra/o de su niño/a.
Gracias por compartir sus opiniones con nosotros y por ayudarnos a hacer de esta escuela un mejor lugar para todos los estudiantes.

Dear Parent/Caregiver,
Included is a link to a survey about your child’s school. We are asking you to complete the survey to help us learn what parents and guardians think about our school. Your thoughts and opinions are very important. Through this survey, we will use your experiences and opinions to help us build on our strengths and work to make improvements.
The survey will only take about 15 minutes to complete and can be accessed by desktop, laptop, or mobile device. If you have more than one child in this school, please complete the survey with one child’s experiences in mind.
The Delaware School Climate Survey was developed by the Delaware Positive Behavior Support Initiative (a partnership between the Delaware Department of Education and the Center for Disabilities Studies at the University of Delaware). There is no identifying information on the survey, so no one will know how you individually answered any of the questions. Information from completed surveys will be used by the University of Delaware to make a report for our school.
When completing the survey, please do the following:
• Answer every question
• Mark an answer that best describes what you believe about the situation described
• Complete the survey by March 29, 2024
• Complete only 1 survey per child
Please feel free to contact me, or your child’s teacher, if you have any questions about the survey.
Thank you for sharing your thoughts and opinions with us and helping to make our school a better place for all students.
