The El Dorado School District is seeking critical feedback from various stakeholders who have significant insight into the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on teaching and learning. Feedback will be used to inform the district's plan for the use of funds received.
Stakeholders include but are not limited to ESD faculty and staff, students, parents, local business owners, and community members. Please take a few moments to complete this feedback form before Sunday, August 8th.
