We Want To Hear From You! Complete The Family Engagement Survey

Kennewick School District’s goal is for all families to be key partners in their student’s education. Our school is seeking input on how to best engage families in their student’s learning. We invite you to complete this year's survey to provide your input.


Questions focus on the content students are learning and how our school is doing in providing resources to help your student, connecting your family to community resources and other important areas of engagement. This survey also contains additional questions for families with graduating seniors.

If you have more than one student, please take a survey for each of your student’s schools. If there is a question you are unsure about or does not apply to your experience, you may skip it. Your participation is appreciated and your feedback is valued.

The deadline for responses is March 27, 2026.
