MANCHESTER, NH — You are invited to join the NH Department of Education at an upcoming public forum (or complete our online survey) to share your vision for the New Hampshire Public Schools.

The Every Student Succeeds Act (ESSA), the replacement for the law commonly known as No Child Left Behind, provides the state and all NH schools with a chance to sharpen our collective vision for education and improve, innovate and strengthen our public schools. The New Hampshire Department of Education (NHDOE) wants school families to join in this critical discussion by sharing ideas on what you believe is most important to improve student learning and how the state can best support schools to serve the needs of all students.

Regional Listening Tour will stop in Manchester on Nov. 22  from 7-8:30 p.m. at Hillside Middle School, 112 Reservoir Ave.

Share your views on the following:

  • What characteristics (academic, climate/culture, special services, etc.) are most important to you to support and grow student learning?
  • If you moved into a new community, what would you want to know about the quality of the schools and the level of student learning and success?
  • Would you want to be able to see how the schools are doing compared to other schools in the state?
  • Overall, what do you expect from New Hampshire’s educational system? How would you like for the NH Department of Education to support that expectation?

Can’t make it to the session? Share your comments via email at ESSAcomments@doe.nh.gov. You can also complete an online survey instead by clicking here.
