Mathematica is conducting the Head Start Family and Child Experiences Survey (FACES) under contract with the Administration for Children and Families (ACF) of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS).
We need for you to complete a brief Teacher Survey. The Teacher Survey asks you about your classroom and your background, as well as your thoughts about teaching and your Head Start program.
Thank you for taking the time to complete the survey. There are no right or wrong answers to the questions. The Teacher Survey will take about 40 minutes to complete.
