Feel free to use our survey documents for regional feedback collection or use your own surveys or meetings for data needed to complete the LNA:

Student Survey: The CTE Student Survey was sent to the high schools in January  - The data collected from your school's survey is posted  HERE.  The file contains raw data for your district.  You may want to see the survey that was sent to students along with the response data.  A copy of the survey is in the first file listed in the link or HERE.

Business Partner Survey Example: https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/LSN7LH5  *(Share with local businesses, Co-op partners, etc)  Our office will send out a business partner survey that can be used at your school.

*Schools can email Laura to get a copy of the results of the regional surveys if used*


Comprehensive Local Needs Assessment:  Completed by EIEFES.  Our office will see all local data submitted by districts in IWAS once all schools have completed their portion.  Our office will complete the CLNA as the first step to writing our state and federal grants.
