+ What instructions should I give to parents?
Ask parents to simply check or mark the box that indicates their answer. They can use either a dark pencil or a black pen to complete the survey. If a parent makes a mistake, they can cross out the error and check the correct box. Do not use white out.
+ Should I data enter the results?
No, all of the results will be compiled for you and a report for each class and each site will be generated. All you have to do it make sure the surveys are completed, the class codes are added to each survey, and all the surveys are turned in. Do not use the Excel files to data enter the results. Do not use the tally sheets to compile the results.
+ Can I make photocopies?
It is preferred that you not use photocopies, but instead use the double sided surveys provided by CCR Analytics. If for some reason you do not have a sufficient number of surveys, you may make photocopies. Very Important: If you make photocopies, make sure they are double sided, high quality copies, the text is not skewed, and use plain white copy paper (don’t try to match the color of the survey). Poor quality copies will delay the analysis.
If the classes are listed on the front of the survey, please check the appropriate class. If the classes are not listed on the survey, enter your classroom code in the upper right corner of each parent survey. The class codes are listed on the back side of the FAQ pages you received with the surveys. If you do not enter the correct code you will not receive the results.
+ There is a family with multiple children in the program. How many surveys should they fill out?
If a family has more than one child in the program we recommend they complete one survey for each child. If they prefer, you can have them complete a single survey and just write the additional child information on the top of the survey.
+ What should I do if the survey for a particular child was printed in the wrong language?
If a Spanish language survey was provided to an English speaking parent or vice versa, please discard the survey with the incorrect language and use a blank survey of the correct language. Very Important: Make sure that the Child’s Name, ChildID, Site, and Class are all completed on the blank survey.
+ What should I do if I did not revieve a survey for a particular child?
If a survey was not printed for one of your children/families, please use one of the provided blank surveys. Very Important: Make sure that the Child’s Name, ChildID, Site, and Class are all completed on the blank survey.
