D50's Communication Team is looking to talk with families about how we can improve the website to fit their needs. We want the most important information to be the most accessible for parents.  Is there information that is often difficult for you to find? Is there a link that you wish was accessible from the home page? Is information missing from a school's webpage that you wish was listed? If you have ideas on how we can make information on the website easier for parents to find, please email us back with your ideas. If you would prefer to have a conversation over the phone, please send us a day, time, and phone number when we can call you to connect. Please also identify if you would like to have the conversation in English or Spanish. Thank you for your time and willingness!
