Kearney School District is asking students, staff, parents, guardians and community members to share their perspectives in its 2026 Annual Survey, which is open now through Sunday, Nov. 22.

The survey supports Responsive Leadership & Community Engagement, one of the four central pillars of the district's 2022–2027 Strategic Plan. District leaders say listening to stakeholders helps them celebrate what is working well, identify opportunities for improvement and make informed decisions that support students and schools.

Respondents begin with a short set of questions about the Kearney School District (KSD). After finishing that section, they can end the survey or spend another 10–15 minutes giving more detailed feedback. Participation is voluntary, and all submissions are anonymous.

District leadership will analyze the results and share them with the Board of Education. The findings will also help guide improvement efforts as the district prepares to develop its next strategic plan in 2027.

The survey is available at www.ksdr1.net/Survey26 and must be completed by Sunday, Nov. 22.
