Ensuring 100% Participation in the Conditions for Learning Survey


Knowing that the Conditions for Learning survey accounts for 5% of your ESSA Designation,  making sure students are completing the survey is easy to monitor.  Special thanks to Courtney Clement from the Iowa Department of Education for best explaining how to do this:

Once in I-STAR, from the 'Dashboards' drop down menu select 'CFL' and 'CFL Response Rate Dashboard'. The dashboard will not display data until surveys have been entered. Once surveys are entered, the dashboard will update in near real-time to show the overall percent complete and percent complete by grade level. The survey does not collect any information that could be traced back to any individual student, so schools are encouraged to keep their own record of students that have or have not taken the survey. 

Optimal participation would be as close to 100% as possible across all applicable grade levels to hear from all student voices. However, at least 50% of the building enrollment (of grades 3-12 as applicable) needs to participate to have sufficient data for a score on the Conditions for Learning measure.
