  1. Overview “There is no program and no policy that can substitute for a parent who is involved in their child’s education from day one.” — President Barack Obama

  2. Overview • The Parent Engagement Survey is a strategic web-based assessment tool that gauges the degree and scope of parent engagement in your school or district on six factors identified by scholars as key components of parent engagement. • The Parent Engagement Survey provides: • Benchmarking Data • A Customized, Detailed Report • Rapid and Actionable Feedback

  3. Benefits of the Parent Engagement Survey • Positive Student Outcomes. Parent engagement has been linked to increased academic performance, school attendance, student emotional well-being, and classes passed. • Effective Interventions. Initiatives to increase engagement are most effective when designed based on accurate knowledge of the degree and scope of parent involvement. • Strengthening Support. Actively seeking parent perspectives demonstrates that parent voice is valued, which is essential for a school’s long-term viability and success. • Fulfilling Requirements. Parent engagement efforts are an increasingly prominent requirement of many education agency funding sources(e.g., Title I, Race to the Top).

  4. Survey Specifics • The Parent Engagement Survey is a 29-item web-based questionnaire. • 27 close-ended items • 2 open-ended items • Schools can add up to six additional customized items (5 close-ended items and 1 open-ended item) on any topic, at no extra cost. • Parents indicate level of agreement with statements using a 5-point Likert-type response scale ranging from 1(Strongly Disagree) to 5 (Strongly Agree). • Items are based on Joyce Epstein’s nationally-recognized work on key family involvement strategies. • Survey items result in six subscales, which correspond to six factors identified by scholars as key components of parent engagement. • Parent demographic information is also collected.
