Dear Parents and Guardians,
We are excited to inform you that our district will be administering a Student Engagement Survey for students in grades 6-12 from December 2nd through December 13th.
The purpose of this survey is to gather important feedback from our students to ensure they feel safe, connected, and engaged within our school community.
The goals of this survey align with our strategic plan and our commitment to fostering an environment where all students feel valued. Specifically, we aim to measure:
- Goal 1: Students Feel Safe, Connected, & Engaged
- 1.1 The % of students who feel safe, connected, and heard
- 1.2 The % of students with regular attendance
- 1.3 The % of students who participate in co-curricular, extracurricular, or community activities
- 1.4 Suspension rate for each demographic group
- Goal 4: Students are Prepared for a Future of Their Choice
- 4.1 The % of students who complete a postsecondary plan aligned to at least one of the four “E’s”: Education, Employment, Enlistment, and Entrepreneurship
- 4.2 The % of students graduating in four years
- 4.3 The % of students demonstrating skills aligned to the DASD Portrait of a Graduate
We encourage all students to participate, as their feedback is crucial in helping us create a supportive and engaging learning environment.
The questions for the survey are available for you to review. If you would like to see them, please contact your school’s principal.
If you would prefer that your child opt out of this survey, please reach out directly to your child’s principal, who will handle your request accordingly.
Thank you for your support as we strive to enhance the educational experience for all our students.
Sincerely,
Robert J. O'Donnell, Ed.D.
