Do Something that Makes a Difference

Make informed decisions with data! Our comprehensive surveys have been used by independent schools large and small to track mission and vision, academic rigor, and organizational performance. Since 1994, our surveys have helped schools of all kinds take a deep and detailed look at attitudes and opinions of staff and families in nearly every component of operations. Our surveys are personalized and focused on you and your needs, helping you uncover areas of neglect and point you toward excellence, all delivered in reports that are understandable and usable.

"Without data, you're just another person with an opinion."

Surveying On Your Own Is Not Advisable

While online survey services provide you data, we provide you with a partner from start to finish who cares about the success of your school and the impact it has for the greater good. Our surveys are personalized, professional, and optimized for independent schools. Our detailed data collection and reporting is one of a kind. Since 1994, our service to hundreds of schools in this manner is unparalleled.

You Don't Need to Be Data Collection & Analysis Experts Because We Are!

From beginning to end, we will help you understand the data that is collected for you. Once the survey period ends (typically two weeks), we begin crunching the data and return to you a professionally presented report of the results, along with narrated explanations and a free online consultation. Don't be one of the many who do their own surveying but then are left with no clue what it really means.

SURVEY TYPES & PRICING

All of our survey questions are already written. However, three customized questions may be added at no additional cost. For more than three custom questions, the cost is $50 per each focus area and $10 for each sub-question in a focus area. Some changes or deletions of pre-written questions may not be permitted. Ask for details. On all of our surveys we ask open-ended questions and a Net Promoter Score question. All surveys now incur a $100 set up fee.

Parent & Employee Attitude & Opinion Survey (PES)

Learn what parents find as the true areas of strength and challenge in the school. Get honest opinions that will help you better understand your operational effectiveness and external perception. Includes a deeper look at financial value indicators and helps you understand the impact on family finances a tuition increase may have. Customized questions allow you to fine-tune the survey for your information-gathering needs. The standard question set includes eight sections (that are closely aligned to *accreditation survey requirements), consisting of 7-8 focus areas with 49 sub-questions. We ask 3-5 general questions, four open-ended questions, and a Net Promoter Score question. Additional options include enrollment factors; grade level questions; and employee specific questions related to salary, benefits, working environment, and professional development. We recommend conducting this survey in either the late fall & early spring. Prices start at $1190. *We can also conduct an accreditation only set of questions regarding Program Satisfaction, Instructional Practices, Operational Practices, and School Improvement. Please ask for pricing details.

Progress & Improvement Survey (P&I)

We always recommend following the PES with our Progress & Improvement Survey that is geared to gauge opinions related to identified areas of weakness from the earlier PES. This is best conducted sometime prior to the end of the first semester. This is only available when used with the Parent/Employee Attitude & Opinion Survey. Pricing varies per question amount.

Culture & Leadership Analysis (CLA)

Understand the impressions of your parents via comments and scored answers on school atmosphere, connection with teachers, student body life, academic and spiritual challenge and growth, personal development and more; along with additional questions specifically focused on the overall leadership of the Head of School. Conducting this survey demonstrates to the school staff what is expected as it strives for the highest level of excellence in culture and leadership. We recommend to conduct this survey near the end of quarter 3. Pricing typically falls between $695-$795.

Head of School 360 & Board Self-Assessment (HOS-BSA)

Enhance the Head of School's annual review with objective data generated by ratings from the HOS, school board, and staff. No parent opinions are gathered in this survey (see the CLA above). This tool provides objective information to help strengthen school leadership (we can also conduct a 360 review of division principals). The board self-assessment performs well with any style of board structure and is completed by the board members only, for their own scrutiny and evaluation. This helps identify any gaps in performance and function. Pricing starts at $795.

Teacher Assessment Tool for Parents (TATP)

This tool allows for parent/guardian input regarding their child’s teacher(s) which is important in helping improve the quality of education for all students. This survey supplements and substantiates subjective reviews and in-class observations conducted by the school principal. Best used in late fall and early to mid spring. The price is $50 per teacher.

Teacher Assessment Tool for MS/HS Students (TATS)

Middle and High School students can give ratings for their teachers based on the experience they had with that teacher during the year, including open-ended responses to questions. Students rate their teachers in general domains rather than subject-specific questions. This allows the administration to enhance summative and formative classroom observations of how a teacher handles the subject matter with the general opinions of the students who interacted with them throughout the year in their classroom. Please contact us for pricing.

Employee Opinion & Culture Survey

This survey allows leadership to understand employee opinions and satisfaction from an "insider's" viewpoint. Get honest feedback on school operations, policy effectiveness, academic and spiritual strengths, divisional leadership, personal satisfaction, working environment, and much more. Customized questions allow you to fine-tune the survey for your information-gathering needs. Consider adding the optional salary & benefits question set. We recommend conducting this in the mid to late fall and again in the mid to late second semester. Pricing begins at $695.

Fully Customized Surveys & Language Options

Schools may request a custom survey to fit their specific needs to gather information regarding areas such as athletics, campaign readiness, school safety, spiritual life assessment, extra-curricular programming, donor development, and more. Our team can construct these surveys from scratch or work with the school to come up with a survey that will ask questions accurately and analyze data thoroughly to meet the school's expectations. We can also offer surveys in several languages. Pricing varies based on number of questions and complexity of structure.
