The district is consulting with Orman Guidance to conduct a comprehensive study of stakeholders in our community. This will include one-on-one interviews, focus groups and a community survey. The goal of the project is to better understand stakeholder perceptions of our schools and determine how and why families make the educational choices they do - whether they are choosing Stillwater Area Public Schools or one of our competitors.
This research project will give district leaders a better understanding of how Stillwater schools are meeting expectations and where they are missing the mark. The feedback gathered will help guide decisions regarding the programs and experiences we offer to our students.
Stakeholders from across the community will be receiving email invitations to participate in focus groups and respond to an online survey.
If you receive an email from research@ormanguidance.com inviting you to share your opinion, please consider doing so!
