Satisfaction Survey


Helpful Information for Survey Administration

 

E-satisfaction survey 2008 administration is from early January to the end of March.
Paper satisfaction survey 2008 administration is from January 7 to February 15.

All surveys can be completed on-line. Schools that requested paper surveys for parents or staff will receive them during January 2008. Paper surveys will not be printed for students.

It is expected that schools will participate in electronic surveys, as paper surveys for students are no longer printed. There are many advantages to e-surveys, such as ease and speed of completing surveys, almost instant feedback on participation and completion status, and faster results reporting of satisfaction levels for schools and districts.

Solutions for common e-administration issues have been organized and provided in e-Administration Problems and Solutions (67 kb PDF).

Unlimited phone and email support will be available to schools during business hours. Further information can be found in the technical requirements (88 kb PDF).

If you face major obstacles to administering the student survey electronically, you can contact a representative at your District Office (This contact information will be provided by the e-survey provider, AWIS.) Please note that student surveys completed on paper must be data entered by the students’ school. Student responses on paper surveys will only be accepted as data entered into the on-line electronic survey system. Please contact AWIS if you require instructions or assistance.
