K-12 Operating System Health Survey

---

The survey results provide communities a shared view of how stakeholders experience the organizational conditions that support their work. They reveal where perspectives align, where they differ, and where greater clarity, coordination, and coherence may be needed.  The broader the participation across stakeholder groups, the richer and more useful that shared view becomes.

That shared insight can help leaders and communities get on the same page, go deeper in understanding what may be enabling or limiting their collective efforts, and focus conversations and decisions on strengthening the operating system that supports daily operations, strategic priorities, and every improvement effort.

The inaugural administration also marks the beginning of a long-term learning effort to help communities build the capability to function as more coordinated and coherent operating systems, enabling them to more consistently achieve the outcomes they aspire to for every student.

Participation provides shared insight that can help leaders and communities get on the same page, go deeper in understanding stakeholder experiences, and focus conversations on where greater alignment, coordination, and coherence may strengthen their work.

Participating organizations will receive:

• Advance  access to national findings to support leadership conversations and place local experiences in a broader K–12 context.

• Aggregate findings across stakeholder groups to illuminate where perspectives align, differ, or suggest opportunities for deeper inquiry.

• Learning conversations and webinars focused on what the findings may mean for leadership, organizational improvement, and operating system stewardship.

• Opportunities to inform future learning and research as the survey and supporting evidence base develop.
