Community group seeks responses to survey on potential charter school

HOUGHTON -- The Community Alliance for Progressive Education (CAPE) is a group of parents and other community members in Houghton County who are working to broaden educational opportunities for the children in the local community. The group is in the process of creating a new public charter school that will offer children a progressive, child-centered learning experience.

They have created a 5-10 minute survey to collect other parents' opinions on the educational options that are available in Houghton County now. They also want to measure interest in the features that will make the new school different from others in the area.

All surveys that are completed by the end of February will be entered into a random drawing for two $25 Econofoods gift cards.

To respond to the survey, please go to:

For statistically relevant results, CAPE needs over 352 respondents.

More information about CAPE and the plans for the new school can be found on their website, superiorcape.org and their Facebook page, www.facebook.com/SuperiorCAPE
