The NYC Department of Education launched its third annual Learning Environment Survey on February 24th, 2009. Parents, teachers and students can take the survey until April 24th, 2009.
In 2008, 806,539 parents, students, and teachers in community and Special Education District 75 schools filled out the 2008 Learning Environment Survey. That's a lot of people--close to 1 out of every 10 New Yorkers. Survey results count for 10% of schools’ yearly Progress Report grades.
Who knows if all this collected data is accurate or useful?
Who knows if all the effort to collect it was worth it?
Who knows where the money might have been better spent?
Data doesn't care.
To access a school's Learning Environment Survey Report, all you have to do is go to the NYC DOE website portal, enter the school name and up pops a survey report on that school.
