Chancellor Porter's Family Forums
Chancellor Porter wants to hear your questions and feedback. In light of unprecedented investments from local, state and federal government, these forums will serve as an opportunity for the Department of Education (DOE) to hear directly from school communities on the types of resources and support they need as we move towards a full reopening in September.
Please see the Family Form Flyer in English, the Family Forum Flyer in Spanish or go to: Chancellor Porter's Family Forums website.
