  The members of the Education Committee chose 12 topics that they believe would be of most interest and then created a survey which was sent to all members of the Scarsdale Forum and which was distributed widely to the broader Scarsdale community several times through Scarsdale based social media sites, neighborhood associations, local Scarsdale media, and personal email distribution lists.

Over 30% of all respondents ranked the previously mentioned topics as their first choice, and 20% of the respondents had those two topics as their second choice. Financial Literacy and Community Design Initiative: Involving All Stakeholder in Designing Education Goals tied for third place. Less than 15% of the respondents chose any other topic as their top choice.
