Tell Them From Me Parent Survey
In our continuing effort to increase school effectiveness, we will be implementing an online survey for parents – OurSCHOOL Partners in Learning Parent Survey.
The OurSCHOOL Partners in Learning Parent Survey is an online survey that allows parents to give their input into school improvement initiatives in an anonymous way. All parents will be given an opportunity to participate. You are encouraged to complete the survey, but may choose not to. Everyone completing the survey will be given a random username and password. Thus, respondents cannot be linked to their responses, ensuring anonymity.
Successful schools foster greater communication with parents, encourage parental involvement in their child’s schoolwork, and enlist parents to volunteer at the school and participate in school governance. This survey is based on a comprehensive questionnaire covering several aspects of parents’ views of their child’s experiences at home and school. The survey also provides feedback to schools about the extent to which parents feel the schools supports learning and positive behaviour and promotes a safe and inclusive environment.
The OurSCHOOL Partners in Learning Parent Survey was created by The Learning Bar, based on the work by co-founder Dr. J. Douglas Willms. Dr. Willms is widely known nationally and internationally for his work on the development of educational monitoring systems, including the Programme for International Student Assessment (PISA) of the Organisation for Economic Cooperation and Development.
During the Student Led Conferences on Tuesday, March 24 and Wednesday, March 25, computers will be available for parents to complete the OurSCHOOL Partners in Learning Parent Survey. The SCC will provide you with a bag of popcorn to enjoy while you complete the survey. Each person that completes the parent survey will have their name entered into a draw for one of five family movie passes! Please remember to bring this letter with your username and password to the Student Led Conferences. If you have completed the survey at home, stop in for popcorn and your entry form!
If you would like more information, please contact the Principal.
