Cherokee ISD is always striving to improve our mission educating children in our community. In order to dothat more effectively, we need feedback from everyone in our community. We have set up three surveys on our website (http://cherokee.centex-edu.net/survey.htm) in order to obtain this feedback. There is one for the parents of children in our district, one for the community members that may not have had or currently have children in our district (this is every adult not currently a parent to a child in our district), and a financial survey for both parents and community members.

We ask that you only fill out the survey one time. Deadline for complete surveys is April 24.

If you know someone who would like to fill out a survey but does not have access to the internet, they may call Cherokee ISD 325-622-4298 and ask that a survey be mailed to them.

If you have news, please drop it off at the Cherokee Grocery or send it to sroad@centex.net

Please pray for our country! Any suggestions to improve our survey, please e-mail Chris Perry, Cherokee ISD Superintendent at perry@cisd.centex-edu.net
