Internet Access Survey

The Office of the Governor and the Department of Elementary and Secondary Education (DESE) are working to ensure that all students in Missouri have the Internet access needed to support digital learning in the classroom. For that reason, public schools are being asked to report the number of parents/families who have internet access while not at school. In order to report that data, we need information from you. Please take a moment to fill out the form linked below so we have accurate information to report. We only need one entry per family.
