One of the many items that CPS considers when approving an app for use in our schools is "what data and information does it collect"? Staff work to choose apps that collect the least amount of information possible.

Voters, have you returned your survey?
In September, CPS mailed a survey to all registered voters who submitted a ballot in the May 9th special bond election. This survey is the first step of many to determine a new solution to address the needs of Columbus Public Schools. If you have not yet returned your survey we ask that you please do so by Friday, October 20th.
