Dear Parent/Guardian,

Fort Calhoun Community Schools are engaged in an ongoing continuous improvement process, of which all stakeholders are a part. On February 13th and 15th for the elementary and February 15th for the high school, during parent teacher conferences, the district will be providing stations in each school to complete an online survey as one method of reaching all stakeholders.

Surveys are a means to systematically engage all our stakeholders in a two-way communication. They provide school leaders and teachers a lens into the thinking and perceptions of our stakeholders. Careful analysis of the results enriches understanding of areas of strength and effectiveness as well as those areas that possibly need improvement. The survey results will enable our school leaders to measure stakeholdersʼ attitudes and help target improvement strategies focused on student achievement as well as school and district effectiveness. Taking the survey will also help stakeholders understand the AdvancED Standards for Quality Schools and provide a means for learning about what a parent, student, or staff member should be looking for in a high quality school system.

Please be assured that your responses to this survey will be anonymous and your honest opinions are appreciated. If you would like to learn more about AdvancED please visit http://www.advanc-ed.org/.

Thank you for your assistance.

Respectfully,

 

Mr. Drew R. Wagner,                                                     Mr. Jerry Green,

Elementary Principal/School Improvement Director     Secondary Principal/Curriculum Director
