Feeder Pattern Survey Results

During the month of October 2009 Bancroft, Walnut Acres, Valle Verde, Foothill and Northgate High School communities were invited to participate in the Northgate Feed Pattern School Climate Survey. Parents, teachers and students in grades 3-12 responded and the results were compiled and can be reviewed by all the stakeholders. Please note that in the results we have published both results specific to Bancroft School and results that represent the combined responses from all the schools in the feeder pattern.

The purpose of the survey results is to: develop as a feeder pattern and as a community towards our focus on student learning, safety, and how we can improve current communications, increase family friendly school environments, and strengthen transitions between instructional levels. Data results from the survey will be analyzed by feeder pattern leadership teams and shared out with the community. Even though Bancroft students are split between two feeder patterns, it is the intent of this survey to truly get input for improvements and consistency for students and families while within any one of the Northgate feeder patterns sites during any portion or all of a students school career.

Thank you to everyone who participated in the survey and for all who will be responsive to our continued improvements in all areas of our school climate.
