During the week ending February 28th, over 33,000 parents or caregivers responded to a Pulse Check™ with their parent praise and insights. Below are trends in comments from families across the country taken directly from our Possip reports. Take a look at an overview of parent praise and insight from Possip families:
Last week, 73% of parents responded that they were happy with their child’s school, with the remaining saying they were mostly happy or not happy with their child’s school.
We saw a few themes across the country:
- appreciation for school staff members and their continued focus on student success and well-being
- comments, questions, and feedback about COVID safety measures being taken on campus during in-person learning
- continued requests for academic support for students who are struggling academically and need additional support from teachers
- feedback about school communication and requests for parent follow-up on student-specific topics
Here are a few suggested tools and resources based on what we are hearing.
