The district collects feedback each spring to better understand how school district messages and news stories are meeting community needs and how it can be improved
Washougal School District (WSD) is seeking community input on district communications through an annual communications survey, open through the end of June. Washougal community members are encouraged to complete the 2024 WSD Communications Survey here.
The district collects feedback each spring to better understand how school district messages and news stories are meeting community needs and how it can be improved. Washougal School District communicates with families and the greater community via the district website, printed newsletters, social media, banners, and yard signs. Families of students in Washougal School District also receive information from the district via weekly e-newsletters, backpack flyers, text alerts, emails, and robocalls.
“Community input through this survey serves as a roadmap for us to make improvements next school year that matter most to Washougal families,” said Les Brown, director of Communications at Washougal School District.
In response to last year’s communication survey feedback, district communicators publicized school events in weekly e-newsletters with more advanced notice, made changes to snow route processes, and made budget information more publicly accessible this school year.
“We want to make sure that families and community members are well-informed about the great things happening in our schools,” said Mary Templeton, superintendent of Washougal School District. “Hearing directly from our community helps us improve and adjust our approach to meet their needs.”
