Dear Parent/Family Member: 

Bristol Tennessee City Schools is working to improve conditions for learning in our schools. Students will learn more effectively in a safe, supportive, and welcoming environment. As we strive to ensure that all schools provide a safe and healthy learning environment for our students, we want to learn more about your experiences as a parent or caretaker of Anderson students. We are committed to the success of every student and to creating a positive school culture. We would like to know how reading and math personalized goals and our student celebrations each year help you and your child.

We are inviting you to participate in the School Climate Survey for Parents and Families. Your feedback will be very helpful in improving student engagement, learning conditions, and the overall school environment. Your responses are completely anonymous, and your name or personally identifiable information will not be collected. 

By participating in this survey, you will provide valuable insights that we can use to improve the climate and culture in our school.   

Thank you for taking the time to complete this survey. We deeply appreciate your time and support! The survey link is below:
