2025 Annual Parent Involvement Survey for Georgia Families Raising a Student with a Disability

Georgia Department of Education (GaDOE) Division for Exceptional Children

In Partnership With Parent to Parent of Georgia (P2P)

Please complete the online survey to make your voice heard.

Why are you being asked to complete a Statewide Survey?

• In order for all students to graduate prepared to achieve a lifetime of success, families need to be an important part of the school team. It is critical that the GaDOE assist local school systems in partnering with families to raise the achievement rate for students with disabilities. Completing this survey will assist in achieving this goal.

What will be done with the information collected?

• GaDOE Division of Exceptional Children will work collaboratively with Parent to Parent of Georgia (P2P), the statewide Parent Training Information Center, to identify needs in family involvement within the state and local districts based on statewide survey results.

Who is being surveyed?

• The GaDOE is surveying parents of students with disabilities throughout Georgia.

Who will see your answers?

• Individual answers are kept confidential. The GaDOE has contracted with evaluators at the Georgia Center for Assessment (GCA) to guarantee confidentiality. Each response will be coded by a number – not a name.

Why do you want to know my child’s ethnicity & disability?

• Geographic area, ethnicity, and disability group data is collected to ensure the results are valid and reflect the overall demographics of the state. Be sure to indicate ethnicity as requested.
