You have helped guide us to heal so many wounds in our school and set boundaries for us to truly succeed. I personally am so grateful for your steadfast support and guidance. I have no words for what you have gifted us. Thank you! I am so very glad you have offered to allow us conversations and the quick emails – we would be lost without your guidance."

Our Surveys
Head of School 360 & Board Self-Assessment
Enhance the Head of School's annual review with objective data generated by ratings from the HOS, school board, and staff. This tool provides objective information to help strengthen school leadership. Opinions are collected regarding intangible asset management (mission/vision, community impact, policy/environment, personal charter) and tangible asset management (finances, facilities, personnel, program, enrollment, student body, trust). It is recommended the HOS survey only be issued once a contract has been tendered. 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. Board self-assessment, from our vantage point, should be required by the board on an annual basis to help identify any gaps in performance and function and to then undertake the needed changes in training to improve upon or completely close those gaps.
It is incumbent upon the board to govern themselves and to reflect critically on their own role and function regardless of its overall governance model.
Parent/Employee Opinion Survey
Learn what staff and 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, and gauge progress toward accreditation standards that are typically reviewed by visiting teams whether you are in the middle of an accreditation review, beginning the process, or thinking ahead. Customized questions allow you to fine-tune the survey for your information-gathering needs.
Teacher Evaluation Assessment
Supplement and substantiate subjective reviews and in-class observations. This assessment provides the teacher with details regarding their technique, demeanor, classroom management, and course instruction, designed to give them encouragement in their ministry. Conducted anonymously online by students (High School, and, if desired, Middle School) during school hours or at home. A comprehensive administrative report brings greater clarity to mission accomplishment, teacher growth, areas in need of improvement, and sure-fire strengths of the teacher!
Fully Customizable Surveys
Schools may also request a *fully customizable 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.
All of our surveys are conducted online, anonymously. Final reports are provided within three weeks of the survey closing.
“Your survey provided valuable information needed to complete the recent ACSI/WASC accreditation, but more importantly, information that confirmed what we believed was true!" Redwood Christian Schools, Castro Valley, CA

Surveying On Your Own Is Not Advisable
|
You can try this on your own -- but, simply put, it is not advisable for many reasons and will not yield the comprehensive results that our reports will so that you can make timely, wise, and informed decisions. |
While online survey services provide you data, we provide you with a partner who cares about the success of your Christian school and the impact it has for God’s kingdom. Our surveys are personalized, professional, and optimized for Christian schools. Our detailed data collection and reporting is one of a kind. Since 1994, our service to hundreds of Christian schools in this manner is unparalleled.

We Are Experts In Data Collection & Analysis
From start to finish we will help you understand the data that is collected for you. You will be able to see the survey ahead of time, and with our guidance you can request question or answer option revisions, deletions, or additions. Once we receive the email addresses of all who should receive the survey, we will distribute the survey and monitor all reminders and data collection. Once the survey period ends (typically two weeks) we begin crunching the data and return to you a professionally presented report of the results and narrative, including a free online consultation. We work with numerous configurations within 14 types of data reports. All of our survey reports are provided in a PDF and PowerPoint format. You are not billed until you receive your final report.
Having Verified Information Makes for Wise Decisions
|
Schools that determine to use data to make decisions will be the schools that thrive for years ahead. Why? No longer can making decisions be based on gut reaction or by committee only. See our blog post on Data-Based Decision-Making & the Christian School and understand how this best affords leaders the opportunity to understand the culture and community objectively and leads to more accurately assessing circumstances. Leave the hard work to us and show your staff, families, and the greater Christian community that you are making planned, professional strides to understand opinions and use that information in a constructive manner to improve your school and make it viable for years to come.
