Impact your child’s learning by completing the 2023-24 Federal Impact Aid survey.

A quick survey that takes five minutes to fill out can generate thousands of dollars in funding for textbooks, materials, hiring staff and educators and more military student support. 

All parents who have children enrolled in the Peninsula School District received a Parent Square message inviting them to complete the survey.

We value your input and are committed to creating an inclusive and effective learning environment in the Peninsula School District. As part of our ongoing efforts to enhance the overall experience for students, parents, and staff, we invite you to participate in our school calendar survey.

We hope your holidays are filled with joy and unforgettable moments! Let's chat about something important: school attendance, especially around holiday breaks. 🏫✨

We know holiday breaks can be tempting for extra days off, but remember, even a few missed days, even if they're excused, can lead to lost learning opportunities. Your child's education is a gift that keeps on giving. 📆

Consistency in attendance, both before and after holiday breaks, is the secret to your child's future success. It helps them stay on track and maintain positive learning habits. 🚀

We're a community that thrives when we support each other. Let's make a commitment to prioritize school attendance, especially during the holiday season, and ensure a smooth transition back to school life. 

If you have any questions or concerns about attendance or anything else, reach out anytime. 📩
