A Public Opinion Survey Conducted by the MORE² Education Task Force,

Roma Lee Taunton, PhD, Project Director

Over the summer and fall of 2009 the MORE² Education Task Force conducted a survey related to public education within the Metro Kansas City Area. Data were collected across the covenanting congregations via electronic and paper questionnaires. The Task Force will use findings from the survey for two purposes: (a) to inform its 2010 policy agenda, and (b) as baseline data for evaluation of achievement of its 2012 outcome goals.
