CSS Learning Environment Survey Results Top the City
Early this Spring, 52 parents (56%), 6 teachers (100%), and 87 students (93%) submitted a detailed survey administered by NYCDOE to assess the learning environment of schools. CSS is proud to report that our results were among the very top in the city in all categories addressed by the survey.
Using a scale that compares CSS to all other middle schools in the city as a percentage, with 100% being the highest scoring school in the city, the following results are based on an average of parent, teacher, and student responses:
- Academic Expectations: 107.4%
- Communication: 100%
- Engagement: 113.8%
- Safety and Respect: 93.9%
*Note that because the survey was done in early Spring these results do not reflect our highly successful June mini-semester courses!
We congratulate the CSS Faculty and Staff, on whose dedicated and passionate shoulders most of the burden and joy of running this school falls, for their extraordinary dedication and service. We also want to thank the parents and students for believing and supporting us in this dream of building CSS together. Lastly, we want to thank Columbia University, for providing us with critical support in this first year of our institutional life.
