Employee Engagement & Well-Being

You Matter
Employee engagement and well-being continue to be priorities at San Diego Unified School District. By adopting a continuous process of assessing and enhancing engagement, San Diego Unified can better understand the needs of its employees, what the district is doing well, and where there are opportunities to improve. 

The process is simple: Staff and leaders use the results of the Employee Engagement & Well-Being Surveys to inspire open discussion at the school or department level, where employees can create simple action steps to address the topics that matter most to them. Follow-up surveys allow teams to assess their efforts, continue building on strengths, or address new opportunities for growth. The process empowers employees to make their workplace better for themselves and enhance their engagement.

San Diego Unified is committed to cultivating an environment that fosters equity, a sense of belonging, and a thriving school community.

WHAT'S NEW

Checking in at This Point in Time

This fall, we partnered with Gallup to conduct a confidential employee engagement and well-being survey for the second year. We pursued this partnership for the purpose of measuring and understanding the needs of our employees to drive transformational change throughout our district. 

The results of the survey will serve as a point-in-time measurement of employee engagement and well-being. 

Let’s Build a Better Workplace Together!

Thank you to all who participated in the survey. Your input matters, and we appreciate your support in cultivating an environment that fosters equity, a sense of belonging, and a thriving school community.

Survey results are confidential and no individual employee names or responses are shared in any report received by managers or school site administrators.

If you would like to see the results for your individual department or school, please contact your department or school site administrator.

What's Next?

Senior leadership will analyze the survey data in collaboration with educational partners to generate goals and next steps for district-level ownership of the results.

As a result of last year’s survey, we started the Living Our Values Every (LOVE) day, week, and month campaign to strengthen our employee recognition efforts, which was highlighted as an area of growth for our district. 

We look forward to continuing to build trust with this partnership and increasing participation rates during the next survey administration.
