Regional Day Care Survey
School District OR-1 (Palmyra/Bennet) and the City of Bennet are teaming together to figure out how to address the critical need for childcare. Since this problem is much more widespread than just Bennet and so many commuters go through Bennet, we decided to do a regional survey!

Your involvement will help develop upcoming programs and support structures to make sure that every family's childcare needs are properly handled. To assist us in building a more family-friendly community, kindly take a few minutes to share your thoughts in this survey.
