Succeed Scholarship Parent Survey Results
2018-2021 Parent Surveys
Parents have POWER! At The Reform Alliance, we recognize this, and we value their opinions. So, we survey all parents who have children participating in the Succeed Scholarship Program annually.
TRA believes that parents are the best decision makers when determining the right educational options for their children, and all children should have the opportunity for a world-class education regardless of zip code or family income. In our existing, one-size-fits-all zip-code-based education model, the financial means of the family, including the ability to live in the “right” zip code, determines the school that a child attends, regardless of what a parent thinks is best.
More than 98% of parents believe the Succeed Scholarship Program should continue to be available.
Because of the important role parents should play in making decisions for their child and the education freedom provided by the Succeed Scholarship, the annual parent survey is an important tool used to measure the success of this program. In fact, parent satisfaction with the Succeed Scholarship is incredibly high. In 2021, 100% of parents believed that the SSP should continue to be available to future students.
