Details of the Study The Community LCAP Survey was open from March 1 to April 7. K 12 Insight emailed individual invitations with survey links to parents, guardians, employees, and community members. Participants also could access the survey via a public link on the district’s website. Paper surveys were available upon request. The survey was offered in English and Spanish. This report summarizes overall survey results. Results do not reflect random sampling; therefore, they should not be generalized to the entire SUSD community. Rather, results reflect only the perceptions and opinions of survey participants. Findings for each item in the report exclude participants who did not answer. In charts and graphs, data labels less than 5 percent are not shown. Percentages may not total 100 due to rounding. 3 © 2017
