Our Approach
The survey was structured to
- Invite teachers, administrators, and staff at all levels to participate
- Invite educators from all areas of the district to participate
- Ask what matters most to our teachers
- Learn if attititudes vary in different areas
- Use neutral questions - not leading towards any given outcome
The survey was conducted as follows:
- Email addresses (over 6000) for ASD teachers and staff were collected from school and district website pages.
- Between Sep 22 and Oct 10, an invitation to take the survey was emailed to each address.
- The invitation made clear that this was being conducted by Stronger Together.
- Respondents were self-selected
- We believe that those for and those against a split were equally motivated to take the survey
Survey participation was very high
- Over 6000 emails were gathered from district websites
- Emails were sent to each address
- Some people reported that they did did not receive the invitation but we have no way of knowing how many emails may not have been delivered.
- There were 1886 total responses.
- There was a very high response rate - 30.4% (assumes all emails were delivered.)
