Parent Survey: We are interested in obtaining information from our parents/guardians related to the PreK-5th grade Holiday Classroom Parties.

Reminder: The Community Engagement Committee of Dixon Public Schools is tasked with engaging the community for the betterment of our students and families.

As we continue this community outreach, we would like to hear from our community about topics that are important to you or your child(ren). Please complete the brief, 2-question survey found through the link below to assist the committee in its focus for the 2025-2026 school year. Thank you for your time.
