Educational Priorities

The Corvallis Community Vision for Education project is seeking input from community members regarding education in our community and the future of the Corvallis school district. Even if you don't currently have children in the public education system, this is an opportunity to contribute ideas toward how we should be shaping young minds. Covered topics include everything from technology to social interaction to sustainability issues.

The community forum has already passed, but there is an online survey with plenty of room for comments. At the end of the initial survey, there is a link for those who missed the initial forum with a few additional questions. Please take a few minutes to take the survey, especially if you have kids or plan on having kids locally. We are blessed with a really great, responsive school district, so I figure this is a fairly painless way to get involved. The survey is located at http://www.360eval.com/login and the login code is CorvallisVision (all one word).

There will be a followup meeting on Tuesday, March 13 at 6:00-9:00 p.m., at Corvallis High School, where the findings will be summarized and additional feedback requested. The final "vision" will be released sometime in May.
