District Surveys
Employee Survey
Employee Surveys
Each year, SSD administers a survey to all full-time employees to gather feedback on staff experiences. The survey helps identify areas of satisfaction and opportunities to strengthen employee engagement. Engagement reflects how connected employees feel to their profession and their current role.
The survey is administered through Panorama, a third-party platform, to protect the integrity and confidentiality of the data collected.
SSD uses feedback received through surveys and other feedback methods to guide the District's continuous improvement and strategic planning.

Student Survey
Special School District values the academic success and well-being of every student and uses data to guide decisions that support student growth. In partnership with Panorama Education, students in grades 3–12 are invited to provide feedback via two surveys: a school climate survey and a social-emotional learning survey. The surveys will be administered from Jan. 12 to Feb. 20, 2026.
The surveys will be administered electronically, but PDF versions are available for preview below.
The surveys will capture the perspectives of our students regarding their experiences at school and encourage them to offer feedback specifically about learning, culture and climate, and experience in the classroom and/or school. The surveys take about 5 minutes each to complete.
The results from the survey data will provide invaluable insights into our students’ experiences and how we can improve and adapt our teaching to better meet their needs. The survey also provides data that will be used during the Missouri School Improvement Program (MSIP-6) accreditation process. Student survey responses are confidential to ensure student privacy, and will only be utilized by school staff to support our students. Additionally, Panorama Ed’s practices meet all student data privacy requirements.
For more information, please visit the Panorama Ed website.
To opt-out a student, please fill out this opt-out form.
Student Survey Results
Family Survey
The strength of any school district lies in its relationships with families. At SSD, district and school leaders and staff are committed to building strong partnerships that support student success. Family input is essential to this work.
The SSD Family-School Relationships Survey will be administered Jan. 12 to Feb. 20, 2026. The survey asks families about how well the District shares information, involves them in their students’ learning, and partners with them to support student success. This feedback helps District leaders understand what is working and identify opportunities to strengthen family-school relationships.
Family members with a current email address on file will receive an email invitation and survey link. The survey can also be accessed below.
- Family Survey - for families with students in SSD Schools or receiving services in Partner Districts
- Family Survey - for families of registered tech school students
SSD has partnered with Panorama, an independent research and communication firm, to administer the survey and compile the results. All responses are confidential; no one in the District will know who participated or be able to connect participants to their responses.
District leaders would like to thank all families for their participation in the survey. We look forward to strengthening our relationship with you, so students can continue to receive the high-quality education they deserve.
