FOR EDUCATORS:

The Prichard Committee, in partnership with a team of teachers from eastern Kentucky, has developed a survey to better understand what is necessary to continue to improve education as a means of breaking the cycle of deep poverty in our state – which is mostly concentrated in Appalachia. And who better to ask what is needed than our teachers?

As a classroom teacher, would you please take the time to complete the survey?

Survey results can inform additional research designed to reveal best practices that facilitate better-than-expected educational outcomes. It can also be used to help direct philanthropy in the region to invest in projects and resources most needed to ensure progress.

Thank you in advance for sharing your unique expertise on this survey.

If you have any questions, please let me know. For additional information on the project please read press release.
