Observations / Implications• Participation
– Since adopting the new vendor in 2013, participation has improved. We will be adding paper-based surveys for the 2014-15 administration for families and non-technical staff.
• Student responses trend lower than families and staff.– Adding school-based discussion groups arranged
by school climate specialists to work more directly with student groups
