Dear families,
Community engagement is a fundamental factor in school effectiveness and students success. Every year Académie Lafayette asks our teachers, students, and parents to take the 5Essentials survey. To be validated, at least 20% of the parents must participate. Our goal this year is to reach 50% parent participation. Can we please count on you? The survey closes on March 27. You can

and participate today. We really value your opinion and feedback.
This survey is part of our work with the
Kauffman Foundation's 5Essentials
program and was created at the University of Chicago more than 20 years ago. The purpose is to strengthen schools in five essential areas: Ambitious Instruction, Effective Leaders, Collaborative Teachers, Supportive Environment, and Involved Families.
Parent participation in the survey helps improve the school's culture, our academics and many other aspects of our school.
The survey is completely confidential. Teachers or administrators never see individual responses. We only ever see a summary of the responses because the survey is administered by the University of Chicago.
To complete the parent survey,

Thank you for your strong support of our school and for taking the time to help us improve.
Bon weekend!

Host families open their homes and welcome an intern for a semester or for a year. They provide a private bedroom and meals when you are together as a family. The school provides a generous monthly stipend to the intern and a monthly city bus pass. One special perk of hosting an intern is that your children will extra practice with their French at home!
