nyc 2026 school survey

THE NYC 2026 SCHOOL SURVEY IS OPEN

Every year, we ask families, teachers, and staff of grades 3-K through 12, and students in grades 6–12 to take the NYC School Survey. The survey gives school leaders a better understanding of what members of their school community think about their school. The information collected by the survey is designed to support a dialogue among all members of the school community about how to make the school a better place to learn.
