From PTA and SIC:
In an effort to understand how you as parents feel about St. Andrew's Math and Science and the directions in which we are headed, the PTA and SIC have a survey with a few very brief questions for parents to answer. The survey will literally take less than 2 or 3 minutes, but will greatly enhance the PTA and SIC's ability to move forward on initiatives based on the results of the survey. Please click on SASMS Survey Monkey to go to the survey and answer the questions. Thank you for your help with this.
