Thank you to all who completed the MVWSD Climate Survey. The survey, taken by all staff, parents and students in grades 5 and 7 in Fall 2017, will provide information beyond test scores that helps us improve our schools.
This survey was administered online through Panorama Education using nationally benchmarked questions. Your answers to the survey are confidential and compiled and analyzed by Panorama, a third party. Personal results are not identifiable.
In addition to completing LCAP requirements, the data will help inform work on the District's strategic plan goals and provide longitudinal data for year-to year comparisons. The questions are drawn from an archive of research-based questions in broad theme areas of engagement, instruction, school safety and school environment. We asked students, parents and staff members about their impressions of our District sites. This is a great opportunity for us to get feedback and continue to work together to improve our schools.
We look forward to working with the leadership of our bargaining units and staff to look for ways we can continue to improve.
