Student S.T.A.R Survey Responses

In the spring of 2022, we re-surveyed all students using our S.T.A.R. (SEL) check-up. 

Our findings were interesting and provided insightful feedback from our learners. The results confirmed our hunch as to the importance of developing classroom and school wide methods of enhancing and developing community to help our learners feel a sense of belonging and to develop a sense of identity. 

Our student survey results indicated:

-a high percentage of students feel safe at school

-a high percentage of students feel adults help them get better at their learning

-a high percentage of students are happy to be at Talmey school

-a significant percentage of students don’t feel they seem themselves and their culture in their learning

-a slight percentage of students feel a need to be more closely connected to people at the school

-a slight percentage of students feel a need to strengthen their learning with core competencies 

We recognize over the past few years and in the context of the pandemic, both students and staff haven’t had the same opportunities to connect with and learn from each other. This along with the recently collected student data, has led us to the following inquiry focus:

Focus/Next Steps:

How might supporting our learners social, emotional, and personal competencies and working to strengthen their sense of identity and belonging help them be successful with their learning and as individuals?
