LVMS Fencing Interest Survey

The Washington Township School District is evaluating the potential for introducing Fencing to our complement of LVMS extra- and co-curricular opportunities for students during the 2025-2026 School Year.  Before proceeding, however, our Leadership Team wishes to survey 5th, 6th, and 7th Grade families to determine overall interest in this program.  

Please take a moment to complete this SURVEY if you wish for your child(ren) to be involved in a Fencing Club if one were to happen at the Long Valley Middle School.  Be aware, this survey will close on Friday, April 11th.  

Thank you in advance!
