Tell Them From
Me
Dear Parent/ Guardian,
Our school is working with the
Western School board and the Department of Education to introduce an
on-line school effectiveness survey for students and teachers. This
initiative will allow students and teachers to have input into
school improvement. The name of the survey program is called
"Tell Them From Me". It is well researched and can be used
to analyse and plan school initiatives as well as enhance
programming.
On a weekly basis, a random
selection of 20 to 30 students from our school will be asked to
complete the survey. All students will eventually be given the
opportunity to participate once over the course of this school year.
Students will be encouraged to complete the survey, but may choose
not to participate if they so wish.
Students completing the survey
will be given a Personal Identification Number (PIN) and a password.
To ensure confidentiality, no student names will be entered when
they respond to the survey. When a sufficient number of surveys have
been completed to ensure confidentiality, the system provides
continuous feedback to teachers and administrators.
The student survey will
require about 20 - 30 minutes to complete. It consists of 80
questions measuring aspects related to student engagement, sense of
belonging, behaviour, and learning climate of the school.
If you are interested in the
format of the survey and the types of questions your son or daughter
will be responding to, you can look at a demo by visiting the

We appreciate your continued
support. If you have questions about this process please contact:
