  • We Need Your Help: National PTA School of Excellence Award

The Robious Middle PTSA is applying to become a National PTA School of Excellence. The School of Excellence program is aimed at opening the lines of communication and critical thinking within school communities to make data-driven decisions that yield positive, long-term results.

The first step in this process is to survey our school community to see how our parents are feeling about Robious Middle School right now. From these results we will choose an area of focus to work on this year and then ask you to complete the same survey at the end of the year. Your answers are anonymous. We appreciate your feedback and look forward to sharing our progress with you along the way..

This survey should take less than two minutes to complete. Please submit your answers by Wednesday, November 10th.

Thank you for supporting your school and your PTSA!
