Survey Data/Graphs
Interviews Dr. Olsen, Principal-Elm Place Middle School Mr. Swanson, Principal-Highland Park High School Mr. Neiberg, Student Services Representative-Waukegan High School Mrs. Rebecca Baim, President-NSSD 112 School Board We found that, when asked, the majority of the people we interviewed said that it was essential to fix the reporting system and make it better. “I think now if students aren’t able to feel comfortable to report a problem, that’s definitely a problem.” ~Dr.Olsen, Principal-Elm Place Middle School “A good reporting system is the missing link.” ~Mrs. Rebecca Baim, President-NSSD 112 School Board
