Parents/guardians who attended a Committee on Preschool Special Education (CPSE) or Committee on Special Education (CSE) annual review meeting this school year, please remember to complete the "New York State Education Department State Performance Plan Indicator #8: Parental Involvement Survey" that was mailed to your home address.

Our school district is working with the New York State Education Department (NYSED) to collect information on how we help you and other parents of students with disabilities to be involved in their children’s education. Parents from school districts throughout the state are completing the same survey. NYSED is working with the Potsdam Institute for Applied Research (PIAR) at SUNY Potsdam, an independent research firm, to collect the information. Your answers to the survey are very important to us. They will help us identify how well we work with parents in order to improve services and results for all our students with disabilities. No one from our school district will see how you answered the questions. PIAR will compile the results of the surveys from all our parents and the results will be available to you in a public report issued by NYSED for our school district.

If you need another copy of the survey, please contact Angela Amato at angelaamato@gicsd.org. 

Now that it is flu season, please familiarize yourself with ways to keep you and your family safe.

Please take a few minutes to view a presentation on the Dangers of Vaping, which was given at Grand Island High School.
