Dear Parent/Guardian:
This is a reminder to participate in the parent survey supplement, part of the Illinois 5Essentials Survey administration. We guarantee that survey responses will never be connected to the identity of you or your child. School reports will only present aggregated information of how parents and students responded as a whole.
A parent survey report will be generated if at least 20 percent of parents respond to the survey. While the parent data will not be made public, the school-level parent report will be made available to the Principal and Superintendent and will enable them to make considerations based on the responses given by Beach Park Middle School parents. Your participation in the parent survey will help us understand the conditions at your child’s school and guide improvement. Again, your identity and individual survey responses will be kept completely confidential and will never be connected to you or your child.
We need 20 percent of our Beach Park Middle School parents to respond to the survey. Currently, 17 percent of parents have responded. WE NEED 40 MORE RESPONSES!!!
If you haven't completed the survey, please do so before March 31st!

This means all students will learn remotely from their homes using their District issued Chromebook.
All Beach Park School District 3 students will follow their regular school schedule and log into their Google Classrooms for instruction from home. General questions can be directed to your child’s school principal. Questions regarding assignments can be directed to your child’s teacher.
Thank you for your flexibility, understanding, and support with our e-learning day.
In Partnership,
Dr. Denise Wilcox, Interim Superintendent
