P-C Schools Improving, Work Still To Be Done: Survey

CANTON, MI — Improving, but still work to be done. That seems to be the consensus about a recent Plymouth-Canton Community Schools survey of parents, teachers and staffers. While the district is solid in areas like safety and learning resources, improvements still need to be made in English language instruction and cleanliness of the schools.

The K12 Insight survey, conducted between March 16 and April 19 and including an online link to the district’s website, measured the opinions of parents and community stakeholders and those of staff. The survey sought input from the community in areas ranging from school board role and responsibilities and safety to cleanliness of buildings and communication.

“Things that were negative, we already knew about and have been working on,” Superintendent Monica Merritt said. “It was good to know we were already aware of the negatives and working to improve the positives.”
