MINOOKA — Parents of Minooka Grade School District 201 students are being asked to respond to an online survey, which will provide reliable information about school effectiveness and improvement that can’t be captured through testing alone.

The survey originated at the University of Chicago as a tool for improvement in the Chicago Public School system. It is based on 20 years of research by the University’s Consortium on Chicago School Research. Recent state legislation has made it available to teachers, parents and students.
