Survey Regarding Regional Needs and HV RBERN Support

In order to better serve our region, the NYS Hudson Valley Regional Bilingual Education Resource Network (HV RBERN) is gathering data to inform our grant-funded professional development initiatives, as well as other support, and we request that you take a few minutes to complete this survey. In addition, as applicable, we are seeking qualitative input with regard to our provided services.

While this survey will remain open, we request that you consider completing this survey by Tuesday, June 15th, in order that we consider the feedback during our HV RBERN Steering Committee meeting scheduled for Wednesday, June 16th.

Your assistance is greatly appreciated! Please feel free to forward this survey to other educators in your district.

Thank you!
