Greetings District 6 PreK Families,
I am writing this to request your participation in a brief questionnaire.
The Environmental Screening Questionnaire (ESQ™) is a quick, parent-completed screening tool that gathers vital information about the home environments of children from age birth through 6.
This is a trusted tool being utilized nationwide by school districts to help consider families’ needs, organize referral information, and to create and monitor family goals. Questions across 6 areas—Education & Employment, Housing, Child & Family Health, Economics & Finances, Family Life, and Community- will assist with how I can align workshops, trainings, and additional resources and support for your family.
The survey is very brief (30 questions) and will only take about 10-15 minutes to complete.
We can complete the questionnaire together by phone or during a Zoom meeting. The choice is yours. You may answer all the questions or only the questions that you are comfortable answering. Your responses will be kept confidential and only used to support you and your child.
The ESQ and the Referral Summary are available in English and Spanish. If you will need a translator for our phone/Zoom meeting, please let me know.
I will be contacting you by phone to schedule a date and time for the completion of the questionnaire. Should you have any comments, questions, or if you want to contact me to schedule a time to speak, please feel free to contact me at Sspaulding@zion6.org or 847-379-0436.
Thank you very much for your time and cooperation.
