Dear Parents,
The USD 232 Board of Education has identified social and emotional growth as a key strategy in our district’s goal to improve student achievement and well-being. As part of our district accreditation process, social and emotional growth will be one of the outcomes measured. As such, the district identified a Kansas Department of Education (KSDE) approved student survey to help measure social/emotional growth.
Clear Creek Elementary is committed to supporting students academically, socially and emotionally. The survey results will generate data to assist us in identifying growth areas to best support our students. During the week of October 22nd-26th, the student survey will be taken during class. This is an anonymous survey – no identifying information will be collected.
Here is some information about the SECD Survey:
- Students in grades 3-12 will take the survey.
- Elementary students (grades 3-5) will take one form, and secondary students (grades 6-12) will take a different form. Context of questions is the same; questions are worded age-appropriately.
- The survey has been significantly reduced in length from almost 60 questions last year to 36 questions this year.
- The survey is approximately 15 minutes in length for students to take.
- One outcome to be measured for all school systems through the accreditation process is social/emotional growth.
- The Board of Education identified social/emotional growth as a key strategy in the district’s goal to improve student achievement and well-being.
- This survey is KSDE (Kansas State Department of Education) approved.
- This is an anonymous survey; no identifiable information will be collected.
Parents may have their children opt out from participation in the survey. Requests for opting out should be in writing (email is acceptable) and submitted to the building principal no later than October 22nd.
If you have any other questions or concerns, please call the office.
Thank you,
Kelley Begley McCall
