Starting this week, the island Department of Education has begun the process of evaluating school transportation services for students in the Special Education program. The initiative seeks to obtain the opinions of parents and guardians on the quality of services.
“Parents’ input on the services their children receive in Special Education is essential for us. It helps us improve and address any situation that may arise,” Education Secretary Eliezer Ramos Parés said. “We call on everyone to participate in this survey and in any initiative that seeks to strengthen our program and services.”
The survey, developed by the Office of Class Action Monitor Rosa Lydia Vélez, will be available through March 31. Its purpose is to measure the perception of parents and guardians about the quality of the school transportation service. Participation in the survey is completely voluntary and will not affect in any way the services to which the student is entitled. In addition, the information will be handled with strict confidentiality and answers will not be shared with third parties.
How to participate in the evaluation
Parents and guardians may complete the questionnaire in the following ways:
• Online platform: Through the following link: https://az-mipe-registry-web.azurewebsites.net/questionnaire-service
