SUMMARY

The Family Experience Survey aims to consistently elevate the parent and family voice.

As we continue to become an antiracist organization, we must integrate the voice of Noble families into our work. The data in this document is for all Noble Schools. Campus-specific data will be shared in PAC meetings throughout the Spring. Here, we outline what we heard from our families across all of our schools about how we are executing our shared mission and values.

BACKGROUND OF RESPONDENTS

A total of 3,886 family respondents provided critical feedback.

Pie chart shows percentages of respondents based on their race/ethnicity: 49% Latinx, 44% Black, 1% Multiracial, 2% White and 1% Asian

RACE/ETHNICITY

50% identified as Latinx, 44% as Black, 2% as Multiracial, 1% as White, and 1% as Asian

Pie chart shows percentage of parent/guardian respondents based on what grade their oldest child is in: 23% had a child in the 10th grade, 25% had a child in the 11th grade, 25% had a child in the 12th grade, 24% had a child in the 9th grade, and 3% either has a child in middle school or did not report

GRADE LEVEL OF OLDEST CHILD

The grade level of respondents’ oldest children were evenly split across the high school grades.

3% of responses were from Middle School parents, which is about the same proportion of middle school students in the network (2.4%).

The survey consisted of questions on the topics listed below.

Here are some of the themes:

Graphic shows that nearly 9 out of 10 Noble Schools' families agree that their child's school provides a predictable and consistent culture

ACCOUNTABILITY & CULTURE

Nearly 9 in 10 families agree that their child’s school culture is predictable, consistent, and promotes learning.

Graphic shows 10 person icons, representing 10 families, 7 of the 10 are in blue, 3 are in yellow, showing that over 7 in 10 families indicate that they feel administrators create a school environment that helps their children learn.

SCHOOL CLIMATE

Over 7 in 10 families feel administrators create a school environment that helps their children learn.

Graphic shows 10 person icons, representing 10 families. 6 of them are blue and 4 of them are yellow, showing that 6 out of 10 families believe their child generally feels safe at school

SCHOOL SAFETY

The majority of families worry about violence in schools; however, over 6 in 10 families believe their child generally feels safe in school.

Graphic shows 4 person icons, representing 4 families. 3 of the icons are blue and one of the icons is yellow. This represents that 3 in 4 families at Noble Schools feel like their school is preparing their student for their next academic year.

SCHOOL FIT

3 in 4 families feel their school is preparing their student for their next academic year.

Graphic shows 10 person icons, representing 10 families, 8 of the 10 are in blue, 2 are in yellow, showing that over 8 in 10 families at Noble Schools have at least one trusted staff member at their child’s school.

FAMILY ENGAGEMENT

Over 8 in 10 families have at least one trusted staff member at their child’s school.

This bar graph has five different segments in it, each with two bars – a yellow bar and a blue bar sitting right on top of each other. The five segments are labeled with the five different indicators Noble Schools’ Family Experience Survey measured: Accountability and Culture, Family Engagement, School Climate, School Fit, and School Safety. The blue bar on top in each segment represents the results from last school year (the 2021-2022 school year). The yellow bar right below the blue bar represents the results from this year (the 2022-2023 school year). To the right of each bar, there is text that shows the percentage score of favorability for each measured indicator. For Accountability and Culture, the favorability score in the 21-22 school year was 89.9 percent and it was 87.7 percent for the 22-23 school year. For Family Engagement, the favorability score in the 21-22 school year was 32.9 percent and it was 34 percent for the 22-23 school year. For School Climate, the favorability score in the 21-22 school year was 68.6 percent and it was 70.4 percent for the 22-23 school year. For School Fit, the favorability score in the 21-22 school year was 61.3 percent and it was 67.9 percent for the 22-23 school year. For School Safety, the favorability score in the 21-22 school year was 59.5 percent and it was 59.4 percent for the 22-23 school year.

Most question topics had similar favorability as the previous year, with the exception of School Fit, which increased over 6% in favorability – which we define as answering “strongly agree” or “agree” to a question. The lowest topic favorability was once again Family Engagement at 34% (1.1% higher than the previous year), and the highest was again Accountability & Culture at 87.7% (2.2% lower than the previous year).

Within School Safety, parents are worrying less about violence at school than last year (3.3% higher than the previous year) but report that their child feels more unsafe than last year (6.1% lower than the previous year), though the favorability for children feeling safe was still higher than parents’ worrying (64.3% vs 37.9%).

Next Steps

  1. This document has outlined the data for all families at all schools. To understand the school-specific data, every Principal will be hosting a Parent Advisory Council (PAC) meeting this Spring. Contact your school for more information.
  2. On April 20, during our Parent Leadership Series, we shared more information about the Network-wide responses to all of the feedback we’ve collected.
  3. The Public Affairs team will recommend final Family Experience goals for our commitments in the Noble Identity Framework that will guide our work in School Year 2024.

RESUMEN

La Encuesta de experiencia familiar tiene como objetivo elevar constantemente la voz de los padres y la familia.

A medida que continuamos convirtiéndonos en una organización antirracista, debemos integrar la voz de las familias de Noble en nuestro trabajo. Los datos en este documento son para todas las Escuelas Noble. Los datos específicos del campus se compartirán en las reuniones del PAC durante la primavera. Aquí, describimos lo que escuchamos de nuestras familias en todas nuestras escuelas sobre cómo estamos ejecutando nuestra misión y valores compartidos.

PARTICIPACIÓN FAMILIAR

Más de 8 de cada 10 familias tienen al menos un miembro del personal de confianza en la escuela de su hijo.

La mayoría de los temas de preguntas tuvieron una preferencia similar a la del año anterior, con la excepción de Aptitud Escolar, que aumentó más del 6% en términos de favorabilidad, lo que definimos como responder “totalmente de acuerdo” o “de acuerdo” a una pregunta. La favorabilidad temática más baja fue nuevamente Participación Familiar, con 34% (1.1 % más que el año anterior), y la más alta fue nuevamente Responsabilidad y Cultura con 87.7% (2.2% más bajo que el año anterior).

Dentro de Seguridad Escolar, los padres se preocupan menos por la violencia en la escuela que el año pasado (3.3% más que el año anterior), pero informan que su hijo se siente más inseguro que el año pasado (6.1% menos que el año anterior), aunque la favorabilidad de la seguridad escolar para los niños seguía siendo superior a la preocupación de los padres (64.3% frente a 37.9%).

PRÓXIMOS PASOS

  1. Este documento ha resumido los datos para todas las familias en todas las escuelas. Para comprender los datos específicos de la escuela, cada director organizará una reunión del Consejo Asesor de Padres (PAC) esta primavera. Comuníquese con su escuela para obtener más información.

  2. El 20 de abril, durante nuestra Serie de liderazgo para padres, compartiremos más información sobre las respuestas de toda la red a todos los comentarios que hemos recopilado.

  3. El equipo de Asuntos Públicomendará objetivos finales de Experiencia Familiar para nuestros compromisos en el Marco de Identidad Noble, que guiará nuestro trabajo en el año escolar 2024.
