If you're a parent, how old are your children and where do they attend school?

Do you or your children have experience with taking classes in portable classrooms? How (if at all) is learning different in a portable environment?

What if the portables are designed to be healthy, green structures?

What else should we know about this subject? Or, who else should we talk to?

Now, we have a few questions that will help us better understand your perspective. None of this information is required, and all of it will remain private to the newsroom.

What is your income?

What is your race or ethnicity?

What do you do for work?

What political party, if any, do you identify with most closely?
