2025 PSD Family Engagement Survey

Your feedback is invaluable in helping Poudre School District improve the educational experience for all students. We invite you to take the 2025 PSD Family Engagement Survey, which will be open from Feb. 3 to Feb. 17.

The survey is available in English, Spanish, Mandarin, and Arabic and should take about five minutes to complete.

If you have children at multiple school levels (elementary, middle, and high school), we encourage you to complete a separate survey for each level to provide feedback tailored to each experience:

The survey covers important topics such as school environment, communication between school and home, student transitions between grade levels, and overall student success. The majority of the questions are multiple choice. Your responses will remain confidential and shared anonymously with school staff. Composite results will be posted on the PSD website.

Your input helps shape the future of PSD and ensures we continue fostering strong partnerships between families and schools. If you have any questions, please contact Ran Shi at rshi@psdschools.org.
