**Community Survey** Which 24-25 School Year Calendar do you prefer? Take a short survey to let the School Board know which one you prefer the most. https://forms.gle/ZAW1bjLX5EQKnPhu6
The calendar committee proposed two calendar options. The main difference between the two is the holiday break schedule.
The survey includes a link to view the two calendar options.
Also, FBMS and PBES normal release times are proposed to be switched with FBMS releasing at 3:25 PM and PBES later at 3:45 PM. This is suggested to make the bus route more efficient for students.

**Public Survey - How are we Doing?** The survey is open for 1 more week.
The School Board wants to know what you think about the Colstrip Public School District annual goals. How well did the District meet your expectations in achieving the annual goals?
The Board created a brief survey (using Google Forms**) to help you share your opinion with the Board. Click this link to open the survey: https://forms.gle/gCUkXtSqy41dyPeLA
As a member of the community, whether you're a student, parent, staff, or citizen of Colstrip or Rosebud County, your opinion matters. A public school is successful because the public community works together to make it happen.

The survey will be open March 12 until April 1.

However, if you are already signed into Google when you open the form, you will see your email address on the top of the form, but the survey will not collect your email address in the final form submission.
