Conditions for Learning Survey
WDMCS does a survey every year called Conditions for Learning to hear what students think. It's required by a law called the Every Student Succeeds Act. All Iowa public schools use this survey to make schools safer and improve how students learn. This helps not just our district but the whole state.
