Dear Families of the Augusta School Department,
As part of my commitment to fostering open communication and collaboration within our district, I have been conducting a listening tour with staff and students to better understand what is working well and where we can grow. Now, it is time to hear directly from you—our families—to ensure your voices are part of this vital conversation.
I invite you to join me for a virtual listening session where we will celebrate the great things happening in the Augusta School Department and gather your feedback to help us improve. Your insights are critical as we work together to shape the future of our schools.
