2011 Workshop Talk | 1:01:24 | All Grade Levels, Leadership & Strategic
Summary
WhatÍs the point in surveying parents? If they don’t like something, then they should speak with the appropriate person, right? Well, yes, but there are many good reasons to formally survey parents. In this workshop we’ll examine the benefits of parent surveys as well as some of the pitfalls to avoid. We’ll explore some guiding principles and delve into how to structure a survey that elicits the best responses from parents. We’ll explore specific kinds of questions to ask (and questions to avoid), methods to elicit the best return rate, and how to best use the results to further your school mission.
