Why should I take time to complete the School Quality Survey?

3/2/2016

0 Comments

 
Every year the Hawaii Department of Education distributes the annual School Quality Survey.  All public school families, including those enrolled in public charter schools, are encouraged to complete the survey.  Your participation is important because:
  • It provides you, the parent, with the ability to have your voice heard in our schoolwide planning & continuous improvement process
  • Results are shared with administration and faculty to identify areas of strength and areas in need of improvement
  • HTA reviews the responses and incorporates the data into our annual Schoolwide Plan and Strategic Plan
  • The SQS results are calculated into the annual Honolulu Magazine Ranking of Hawaii’s Public and Charter Schools

The full results of our 2014-2015 School Quality Survey are attached to this Weekly Why.

Consistent areas of strength were identified as:
  • Students are emotionally “safe” within the school building/lack of bullying
  • Approximately 90% of parents are satisfied with HTA
  • HTA’s common core aligned curriculum (in the data points)
  • Quality of Faculty

Consistent areas for improvement were identified as:
  • Physical safety outside of the Oahu Learning Center
  • HTA can work harder at engaging students when at the learning center
  • HTA’s common core aligned curriculum (in the comment section)
  • Schoolwide Communication


Participating in the 2015-2016 survey further enables HTA to take your voice into consideration when crafting our annual Schoolwide Plan and the strategies that drive our 3 year School Strategic Plan.  Please note that the SQS is different than the HTA Perception Survey that you may have completed in December.  The HTA Perception Survey is HTA’s own annual survey on which we are able to ask island, division and blended learning specific questions, the results of which also drive school improvement.

The online survey can be completed at:
  • If your child is in grades 4 or 5: https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/2016ElemParents
  • If your child is in grades 7,8,9, or 11: https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/2016MiddleHighParents

Completed surveys must be received no later than March 15, 2016.

We thank you in advance for taking time to complete this survey and we look forward to sharing the results of our 2015-2016 School Quality Survey with you.  

With Warm Aloha,
Ms. Fitz and Mr. Zitello
