Survey closes April 10th! Each year, we ask our families to complete the MRA for Leader in Me. This survey gives you a chance to share your thoughts and ideas for improving our school. The same questions are asked from Preschool through High School. When answering, think about what that question would mean for a preschool child. https://www.leaderinme.com/s/northwest-early-childhood-center-mo/families
