Along with assesments, your child will be asked to complete a pre- and post-survey during the program so that we can evaluate any program-related sucess and challenges this year in order to continue to improve Summer Discovery to best serve all students and families. No further action is required to provide consent for your child to participate. If you would prefer that your child not participate, please notify Markita Stewart at markita@equityalliance.org or by phone (248)219-3488 confirming you would like to opt-out student surveys.
