The Quality of Education Survey is now available electronically for all parents with students in the Los Alamos Public Schools. 

Please take a few minutes to complete the survey by:

• Clicking on: https://webapp.ped.state.nm.us/studentsurveys/SurveyFrame.asp;
• Go to the left side of the page and select Take a Survey; and
• Enter a name in the login information, select Los Alamos School District and your role. Select the school that your child attends and take the survey.

The electronic survey is open until May 1, 2016. Paper surveys have been made available to each LAPS student and in school offices.

The annual Quality of Education Survey is mandated by state law [NMSA 22-2C-11 D] to allow parents the opportunity to provide anonymous feedback on their child’s education. The first 10 questions are the same for all schools and are set by the Public Education Department (PED). Five additional questions are constructed by district school boards and another five questions are developed by schools and teachers.

This year the LAPS Board aligned the District questions to their strategic plan and focus areas. This will allow the Board and District to have an additional annual data point aligned to the identified priorities.  School sites also had an opportunity to change their questions this year.

Please help our schools by completing the survey!
