Following advice from @Patrick I created the following form with dropdownlists.

However I am unable to get the values in the Template.

Here is the Code(I removed the bode)

<AddForm>

<ScriptBlock BlockType="HeadScript" RegisterOnce="True" ScriptId="KBXM_Theme_none_steam_temp">

<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="/DesktopModules/XModPro/styles/none" />

RedirectMethod="get"></AddButton>

<CancelButton Text="Cancel" style="margin-left: 12px;" Visible="false">

</CancelButton>

</div>

</div>

</Redirect>

</AddForm>

And here is the URL of the page with the template after POST 

url/page?focus_area=Arts&program_type=Curriculum&geographic_area=Central+San+Diego+County&grade_level=K-5

Here is an example of how I want to get one of the POST values

<xmod:Template id="template1" UsePaging="True" Ajax="False">

<ListDataSource commandtext="SELECT @Hello AS Hello">

<Parameter Name="Hello" Value='[[Form:program_type]]' DataType="String" />

</ListDataSource>

<HeaderTemplate>

<table>

<thead>

<tr>

</tr>

</thead>

<tbody>

</HeaderTemplate>

<ItemTemplate>

<tr>

<td>[[Hello]]</td>

<td>Test</td>

</tr>

</ItemTemplate>

<FooterTemplate>

</tbody>

</table>

</FooterTemplate>

</xmod:Template>
