ACSI Accreditation Surveys
Did you know that TCA is accredited by Cognia, the largest joint accrediting agency for Christian schools in the world? We are conducting a study in conjunction with our upcoming accreditation process, and we need your help! As a part of that process, we are conducting a study in conjunction with our upcoming accreditation process. And we need your help! Please click the link below and complete this short survey to help us complete this process. We need a large majority of our parents to participate. Please complete this quick survey at the link below.
Your part
Since the flourishing of our community is important, we are asking you to take the survey. Depending on how long you spend thinking about the questions, it should require somewhere between 5-15 minutes for you to complete. In general, your first impression is the most accurate, so there’s no need to over-analyze individual questions. Your response will not be tracked to you personally, so don’t worry about anyone judging you or being offended by your honest insight.
If you need to save your responses and return later to the survey, you will have the option to do so. At the top of the survey there is a tab where you can enter your email address. An email will be automatically generated by Alchemer, the assessment host, with a link for you to return to the questions you last answered. All your previous responses will be saved, and using the unique link emailed by Alchemer you can re-start the survey later without losing your place. Your email address is not used for anything besides providing you with a unique link to save your place in the survey. Alchemer will not share the email addresses submitted to "Save and Continue" option with any other party.
Your Student’s Part
Student input is critical for this process, so we’re planning to include their feedback on our school’s culture as well. This will be administered during school hours to students in Upper School at a later date and will be communicated to you in advance.
The Result
Students, faculty, school staff, administration, the TCA board, parents, and alumni will all participate in the web-based assessment for our school. The end product of the process will be a school-level report showing our school’s results benchmarked alongside national averages. It is our hope that this evaluation will provide important information as we continually strive to uphold our mission. Let me be very clear: each participant’s individual responses will be handled by ACSI anonymously, and the report our school receives from ACSI will only show our school’s results in aggregate.
The Prayer
Please be in prayer for the school as we undergo this process and as we get information that will help all of us better serve Christ and others. Thank you for your (anonymous) participation in making this endeavor a success.
