Dear NVE families,
You may have recently received a communication about a districtwide survey known as the Data Triangle Survey. We want to echo that message and strongly encourage you to participate.
Your feedback is essential in helping us improve how we serve your child and our school community. The survey takes only a few minutes to complete and covers important topics such as classroom instruction, school safety, communication, and student engagement.
The survey is open now through October 21. You can find more information and access the survey link at www.duvalschools.org/survey.
Thank you for partnering with us to make Normandy Village Elementary and all Team Duval schools stronger for every student.
This is just a reminder to join us tomorrow at 4:30 for our October SAC Meeting in Room 12. We will be discussing the Title 1 Plan for this year. Can't make it in person?

Dear Families,
From October 6 through October 21, our school, along with the District, will participate in the Data Triangle Survey. This survey gives families, students (Grades 4-5), staff, and community members a chance to share feedback that helps us improve and better support every student.
Before the survey begins, we encourage you to visit www.duvalschools.org/survey to:
1. Preview the survey questions. There are tailored surveys for families, students, staff, and community members.
2. Review the student opt-out form. If you prefer your child not to participate, you may complete and submit this form in the parent/guardian FOCUS account.
Your input makes a difference. Thank you for partnering with us to strengthen our school community.
Sincerely,
Jessica Sales
Principal
