Get To Know Your Child Questionnaire For Parents

The questionnaire begins with household contact and preferred-name fields, then invites family members to describe the child in their own words. Later pages ask about school preferences, strengths, activities, hopes, potential health concerns, and interest in volunteering. Because responses may contain sensitive personal information, completed forms should be collected and stored securely. Teachers can also make clearly optional any prompt not needed for educational planning.
