Planing Ahead

By the ends of February and the beginnings of March I am planning to start the support group if the survey shows that students and teachers would be willing to attend along with having a sponsor. I am planning to start it by then because I would like to see if the support group is helpful or not, at least here in Chinquapin. I would hold a survey at the beginning of May for those who have attended the support groups, with the survey I would be able to have a sense of the effectiveness the support group had and in what areas could the support group could have been improved.    

Step foward...

These past few weeks I have been searching about the criteria needed to start a support group. In this research I have found that I should create a survey to have an idea whether or not students and or  teachers would attend the support group. In doing so I would also need to take notes on the possible times that the student and or teachers would be able to attend the support group. If the survey shows that the student and or teacher are willing to attend then I would take a step forward to look at the schedule and create permission slips. An issue with this is that I need to find a sponsor that has the knowledge and background on grieving the loss of a loved one. My other issue is knowing how to make a survey, and legal status behind making the permission slips for the support groups.
