If you are an Orangeville School District parent of a child aged 3-21 years with an IEP, you should have received a letter from from ISBE to fill out online or via mail. The purpose is to determine how well schools throughout the state are involving parents of students with IEPs in their children's education. The district can later receive the aggregated results, but they are anonymous, so we are asking you to please complete that survey by May 15th.
