You will be receiving a survey from a company called LifeTrack. This is a legitimate survey and we would love for you to take the time to fill it out.
This is a service Valentine High School has used for several years and the information we gain from it is very valuable to us. It provides us with longitudinal data that we use to adjust our programs and curriculum to better prepare students for life after high school.
Thank you for your contribution!
