Senior Project Parent Survey – J Hendron
Dear Parents, Thank you for taking the time to provide your opinions about the Goochland High School senior project. Your responses are anonymous and will be used for an evaluation of the senior project. Your responses will be tallied together to provide Mr. Newman and the senior project teachers input on this instructional program at GHS.
I am completing this project as part of my doctoral studies at Virginia Commonwealth University in Educational Leadership. If you have any questions or concerns about my research, please contact me! Thank you again.
