Let's Talk and Engage in Conversation

Last March, the school district softly rolled out a new communication tool called Let's Talk. Let’s Talk makes it easy for parents, students, staff, and community members to ask questions, request information, and share feedback. Over the summer, we added topics for each of our schools. 

Anytime someone submits something to Let's Talk, it goes to the people who are most knowledgeable about the topic. There's often a team of people behind each topic, ready to engage with you on any inquiry.

“As a school district, we want to create a thriving school culture and climate, and that’s only possible by listening to community feedback,” says Superintendent Rene Sanchez. “Let’s Talk makes it easier for our stakeholders — including students, families, staff, and community members — to reach out with questions or concerns and provides the district with data needed to make informed decisions.”

Let’s Talk delivers dynamic features including:

• 24/7 accessibility from any device, including smartphones, tablets, and laptops; and will soon support texting
• We are working to add translation tools that can translate dialogues to a number of languages to meet community needs and manage multilingual communications
• Data collection to help education leaders make informed decisions

"Let’s Talk enables our district to accommodate the communication needs and preferences of our community members with a variety of channels and translation tools (soon!), and address issues and inequities experienced by students and families. This is directly tied to findings from our equity audit,” reports Superintendent Sanchez. “No matter how our community contacts us — we are able to provide a timely, accurate response through Let’s Talk within 3 business days, though it's typically less.”

Every voice deserves to be heard and every question deserves to be answered. Let’s Talk makes this all possible. We encourage everyone in our community to use Let’s Talk to share your feedback, questions, and ideas to help us deliver high quality customer experiences and make CVSD an even better place for our students, staff, and families.”

Here's a short how-to video to help you see how easy it is to share your thoughts.

We look forward to hearing from you!
