Dear Faculty and Staff,
Every voice matters! This email is to invite you to take the SCoPE Survey for Faculty and Staff about school communications. You can access the survey at Faculty Link:
http://hudsoncisd.scopeschoolsurveys.com/index.php/767974/lang-en
on almost any computer or mobile device, starting on Friday, May 20, 2016 through June 23, 2016. Your privacy is protected. Participation is completely anonymous.
The Hudson City School District cares about communications and has made internal and external communications an integral and important part of the District Strategic Plan. Earlier this year, as an example, Phil Herman asked you how to help him best communicate with you. It is now the end of the year, and we want to know if you are receiving information you need and want on all levels and in a variety of ways.
We’ve decided to find out with the help of SCoPE (School Communications Performance Evaluation) surveys dedicated to evaluating the effectiveness of communications with faculty and staff, parents and family, and our community.
These are nationally normed surveys that align with the National School Public Relations Association’s Rubrics of Practice and Suggested Measures to help strengthen and improve our district’s comprehensive communication plan: internal, parent/family, and community.
We expect this information will help us determine those areas where our methods of communication are working and those areas that may need to be enhanced.
Again, the Faculty and Staff and Parent/Family surveys will be open from May 20th through June 23rd. The surveys take less than 15 minutes. We know this is a busy time, but really value your input.
The Community Survey will take place in the fall of 2016. If you are both a staff member and also a parent in the District, please feel free to take both surveys.
