How is the survey administered?
To keep costs and local effort to a minimum, staff will take the survey online (via the Internet) during a district-determined 30-day survey window. District CHKS coordinators will be given a master letter for each participating school that includes the school name, a school-specific login and password, and instructions on how to fill out the survey online. The district coordinator then distributes copies of the letters to each staff member (e.g., putting them in staff mailboxes, distributing at staff meetings), who follow the instructions and fill out the survey online, from any computer. The survey must be completed in one session, at the end of which, results are submitted electronically to WestEd. Printed versions of the survey are also available, but additional fees apply.
