Q:
If there are no children or anyone currently in school in my household, should I respond?

this questionnaire. Those who do not return the survey will not be represented in key statistics

purposes and may not be disclosed, or used, in identifiable form for any other purpose except as
required by law (Section 9573, 20 U.S. Code).
