Surveys should be returned in the enclosed addressed envelopes that you receive with your survey.
You can also choose to take the Survey online at: www.schoolsurvey.org using the SERIAL ID that is provided on your survey materials.

Parent Alerts Available
The City’s public notification program, Notify NYC, now sends updates for emergency situations at school and other events that have an impact on the school day by phone, text message, or e-mail to parents and guardians who sign up for the service. The service updates parents about delayed school openings and early dismissals, student re-locations, and temporary school closures related to weather or other unexpected events. Parents and guardians can choose to receive alerts for up to five zip codes, and will receive notifications about schools within those zip codes.
