Parents & Guardians:

Astoria School District strives to provide a quality education for all students. As a district, we work every day to support students at all levels, both academically and emotionally, and we understand that students’ needs are constantly evolving. Part of providing a quality education is eliminating barriers that could inhibit students from reaching their fullest potential.

The district recently finalized a strategic plan designed to support students and optimize learning in our schools. To gain needed insight into the current student’s school experience, Astoria School District will be providing an online Equity Survey to students. Guided by the strategic plan, the District is completing an Equity Review with staff, parents, and students to ensure the district eliminates barriers to student learning.  Astoria School District is working with Education Northwest to help with the Equity Review for grades 6-12 students.

Students will take the survey online during the week of September 18, 2023.  Although we want to hear from all students, participation in this survey is voluntary. If you choose not to have your child participate in the Equity Survey, please complete the information below and have your child return this form to the school before September 15, 2023, or call your student's school office to opt out of the survey.

Your child’s individual results will not be identified in any reports because results are shared at a group level. No personal identification information will be asked of students.

Please call me at (503) 325-6441 if you have any questions or need more information.
