5 Essentials Student Survey
Dear BPS 101 Families,
We are reaching out to remind you about the 5Essentials student survey that will be administered at your child’s school. This is the eleventh year the Illinois State Board of Education will implement this survey across the state. This survey is based on 20 years of research at the University of Chicago. It asks students about their experiences in school, giving school leaders critical student input to help develop school improvement plans.
Students’ identities will be completely confidential. Teachers or administrators will never see individual responses to survey questions and will only receive aggregated information, such as the total percentage of students who agree homework assignments help them learn the course material.
Please be aware that under the Protection of Pupil Rights Act. 20 U.S.C. Section 1232(c) (1) (A), you have the right to review a copy of the questions asked of your student(s). Survey questions can be found on the UChicago Impact Support Center (https://impactsurveyshelp.force.com/s/article/illinois-5essentials-survey-questions).
BHS students will take the 5 Essentials survey during the week of February 20th. If you do not want your student to participate, please contact JoAnne Smith at joanne.smith@bps101.net.
