Members of the State Legislature Seek Your Input for Potential After School Policy

Members of the State Legislature would like your input to help inform and shape potential policy regarding the sharing of student data between school districts and after school program providers. Legislators seek to understand how data is currently shared? Why data is or is not shared? And how after school programs could incorporate data from school districts into their programs? Your responses to this brief 7 question survey will provide policy makers with an understanding of the existing data sharing landscape from the program provider perspective, and may inform potential after school legislation regarding data sharing. If you would like to offer input to the Legislature, please respond to the brief survey by Wednesday, February 10, 2010.
