Funding priorities for Illinois public schools

SURVEY:

Add YOUR voice to local, state, and national conversations about public school funding.

We are seeking to identify the major education funding needs in Illinois schools so we can advocate for the appropriate action - whether it’s at the level of an individual school district, a specific region, or the entire state.

In our survey you’ll be asked to consider various school issues and “VOTE” for those that are most relevant to your student, your family, and your community.

You can write in your own school issue(s) - so please give us all the details! 

Our survey is based on the question:

“If your school district were to become fully funded, what would your top funding priorities be?”

The survey sets two school funding ideas against each other. You vote for which one you think is best . . . then you get the chance to rank more ideas.

Your responses will influence how the education funding ideas rank as we tally the votes from thousands of people across the state.

SURVEY INSTRUCTIONS

STEP 1: FILL OUT the contact form below when you’re ready to start the survey. 

You will be directed to the survey AFTER the information is submitted.

You will be given two funding ideas to consider.

CLICK on the idea you think is most important to “VOTE” 

OR CLICK “I can’t decide” 

OR  use the indicated space to WRITE IN YOUR OWN IDEA

STEP 2: VOTE

An example of what you will see in the survey:

Each time you vote, you will be given two new funding ideas to consider. You can vote as many times as you like. The more you vote, the more you help rank the funding ideas. The ideal amount of voting time is 5 minutes, but do as much as you are able.

STEP 3: VOTE AGAIN

STEP 4: STOP

To end the survey, simply stop voting and exit the page at any time.

Send the survey to others in your network - we value a broad set of responses, particularly from families with school-aged children.
