MCALLEN PROFESSIONAL STAFF SURVEY
MISSION STATEMENT
The Campus Professional Staff Survey shall be administered annually to assess the attitudes and opinions of McAllen Independent School District professional staff regarding:  
Instruction
Support
Campus Climate
Campus Administration
District Administration
Facilities and Equipment
 
in order to improve campus and district strategic planning so that optimal students success is achieved.
McAllen Professional Staff Survey (MPSS)
To improve district and campus strategic planning, all campus professional staff members are strongly encouraged to complete this online survey.  Genuine responses ensure accurate, valid information.  If you have any questions regarding this survey, contact your campus IDEA representative, principal, or the Program Evaluator Office at 618-6085.  
This survey does not assess you or your campus, but provides feedback and input on issues and concerns relevant to student learning at the campus and district levels.  The information gathered can enhance improvement planning.  The procedures for collecting this data are designed to ensure anonymity.  The responses you provide can not be linked to you. They are provided as group summaries.
Participants should respond to all items individually and independently, as they apply to your particular campus only.  Items specifically identified as “District” should be answered as they apply to MISD.  Do not skip any item unless specifically instructed to do so.  Choose the best response that most closely reflects your opinion or attitude regarding the item.  “Not Applicable” should be chosen only when an item does not apply to you and not as an effort to avoid giving an opinion.
