Student Survey

At DPS, we believe we must focus on more than academics to ensure our graduates are truly prepared for college and career. We believe we must focus on supporting the Whole Child – meaning students are challenged, engaged, supported, safe, healthy, and social and emotionally intelligent. The Whole Child Student Survey is our measurement tool, designed to provide meaningful data to track how our schools are performing on each of these components of the Whole Child.

We are one of the first districts in the nation to attempt to define our Whole Child focus and to gather data that shows whether our students are making progress in these critical areas. We know we won’t reach our district vision of Every Child Succeeds without this focus.

2015-16 Survey Results

Below are the results of the 2015-16 Whole Child Student Survey. The districtwide results are listed at the top with searchable and sortable tables below. You can search for a specific school by name, or sort schools by their results in any column.

Students were asked to rate how they felt about each of the six Whole Child components: Challenged, Engaged, Healthy, Safe, Socially-Emotionally Intelligent and Supported.

The district also asked students:

Breakfast 5+ days: How many days they had breakfast five or more days per week
Bullying,
- Reported: For elementary school students, whether students at their school were bullied
- Physical: For middle and high school students, if they had experienced physical bullying at their school
- Orientation: For middle and high school students, if they perceived bullying at their school was related to an individual’s sexual orientation
Chronic Absences: The percent of students who are chronically absent
Out-of-school Suspensions

Elementary (Grades 3-5)

Understanding the Results

The results of the 2015-16 Whole Child Student Survey are in! We began gathering information in our annual student perception surveys and our school leaders are now using this data, along with attendance and behavior indicators, to inform their school planning efforts. The survey data brings new insights into how our students are experiencing school. Key districtwide outcomes resulting from this data include:

Confirmation that the link between Whole Child factors and success in school is strong – students who reported strong Whole Child outcomes were more likely to meet academic expectations.
Identification of schools with particularly strong Whole Child outcomes so that we can emulate their practices in other schools – schools with particularly strong outcomes for African-American, Latino and low-income students worked to intentionally set a school culture that prioritizes and develops strong individual relationships with students.
Highlighting critical areas for us to focus our supports – including bullying, chronic absenteeism and out-of-school suspension disparities.

Using the Results

Every school is different. The Whole Child Student Survey paints a clear picture for school leaders and educators, helping them tailor Whole Child goals and supports to best meet the needs of their unique and individual school community.

With this information, our school leaders have a clear picture of areas of strength and opportunity for their kids. They will utilize the data to set goals and identify improvement strategies in their school planning processes so that appropriate supports can be aligned and progress can be measured over time.

School leaders and educators can access resources and support available through the Whole Child Resource Bank to identify speciﬁc strategies in their focus area of choice. Each school’s goals and strategies will be documented in their Uniﬁed Improvement Plan.

Measuring Effectiveness

We are one of the first school districts in the nation to attempt to define our Whole Child focus and to gather data that shows whether our students on making progress in these critical areas. We know we won’t reach our district vision of Every Child Succeeds without this focus.

Each spring, students will answer survey questions to evaluate the Whole Child environment in their school. Students are asked whether they feel challenged, engaged, healthy, safe, socially-emotionally intelligent and supported (the six components of the Whole Child). They’re also asked about how many days a week they eat breakfast and whether they have witnessed/experienced bullying at their school. We also look at chronic absenteeism and out-of-school suspensions as indicators of our success in supporting the Whole Child.
