DOE publishes back-to-school survey results by district

54,000 Granite Staters share perspective on reopening schools

CONCORD- The New Hampshire Department of Education has published results of the School Transition, Reopening, and Redesign Taskforce survey of 54,000 Granite Staters, broken down by school administrative unit (SAU). Survey results from 99 SAUs are available to the public on the Department’s STRRT webpage at www.education.nh.gov/strrt-districtsurveys. Each local report includes results from surveys of educators, school leaders, wellness providers, and parents.

“Our school reopening guidance was informed by the views of the thousands of parents and educators who took our STRRT surveys,” said Education Commissioner Frank Edelblut. “There is no one-size-fits-all solution to reopening schools across New Hampshire, and these survey results provide each community in our state with a better understanding of the specific concerns of their parents and teachers.”

Commissioner Edelblut shared these local results today during the Department’s regular conference call with local school leaders. In order to preserve the anonymity of the STRRT back-to-school surveys, results from five SAUs with small sample sizes have not been published. Results from 99 SAUs are available at www.education.nh.gov/strrt-districtsurveys
