Each year, the Brazosport Independent School District and each campus conducts a survey of parents to gather information about beginning of the year (BOY) activities. The survey window this year ran from November 9 through November 30.

In the past, the survey was launched during the first six weeks of school. This year, however, the need to begin the school year with virtual learning opportunities while phasing in face-to-face instruction posed several significant challenges to our campuses, our teachers and our families. With this in mind, BISD waited until the end of the twelfth week to allow students and families the opportunity to settle into their at home virtual or at school face-to-face learning environments.

The BOY Parent Survey asked respondents to evaluate questions from five areas. The 2020 BOY Parent Survey questions and the overall approval percentages were:

BISD commends our teachers and administrators who are working countless hours to call and email their students and families who are struggling academically; particularly those students who are learning at home virtually. We also want to thank our parents and students for their outstanding efforts in helping make the beginning of the 2020-21 school year as smooth as possible.
