How Are We Doing?

When we ask someone to share “How we are doing?” it is understood that we are opening ourselves up to criticism, but we also believe there is value in this process. As a school, we want to embody a mindset of continual improvement. A significant part of this is to ask our families for feedback. We want to know how you feel and ask for this information because we understand that there is always room for improvement. We also want to be a school that consistently looks for ways to improve not only our communication and programming but every facet of the educational experience.

Recently, our new families received a brief survey that inquired about their experience of coming into our school. We are currently reviewing that information to improve our processes for welcoming new families.

On a larger scale, we will soon be offering all of our families an opportunity to provide feedback about their experiences with our school. This is being done to help prepare our school for our accreditation visit that will take place in the fall of 2023. The accreditation process is vitally important to schools and is a 5-year cycle that culminates with a group of educators from other schools across our region coming on campus to review our school. They will meet with parents, teachers, trustees, and students during this time and will make recommendations for things we can improve on and commendations on things we are doing well. We will use the School Community Survey conducted by our friends at the Southern Association of Independent Schools (SAIS) to gather data. Your participation in this survey is important as we prepare for the visit. The survey will cover all facets of our school, provide an opportunity for parents to brag about the areas where we excel, and offer suggestions for improvement. If you have questions, please reach out to me.
