Family Survey

Dear Parent:

Family Survey for our school
New Brighton School is taking part in an Active School Travel project, Stepping Toward a Greener Tomorrow, that will improve school journeys for our students. Through School Travel Planning, parents, students and school staff will work with municipal, school board and public health officials to reduce congestion, address traffic safety issues and encourage more students to walk and cycle for the school journey.

Please complete this 5-minute Family Survey with your eldest child who attends this school. Your input is important to the success of this project. Knowing what travel choices families are making and why they are making them will help the school create a travel plan that considers everyone’s needs.

This survey is voluntary; you may choose not to participate and you have the option to withdraw from this survey at any point. We do not ask for your name. Your responses are anonymous and will be stored electronically in secure password-protected files, only accessible to the school's Active School Travel committee, Ever Active Schools, and Livable Streets Calgary, who are directly involved in the project.

Thank you!
