Charger Chatter
October 7, 2019
Dear Parents,

The staff at St. Charles School are beginning a two year self-study accreditation process to evaluate programs and school climate. The attached survey is created by the Ohio Catholic School Accrediting Association in an effort to assist us in gaining insight into our school. The survey results are summarized for us and all respondents remain anonymous.

Please take a moment over the coming weeks to respond to the survey. Each parent and/or guardian of our students can take the parent survey. We thank you in advance for your time and input towards responding to this survey.


God Bless,
David Bogle
Principal
