Survey for Sponsors and Students, OMB

Needs and Uses: The Department of 

Defense Education Activity (DoDEA) 

Customer Satisfaction Survey for 

Sponsors and Students is a tool used to 

measure the satisfaction level of 

sponsors and students with the 

programs and services provided by 

DoDEA. This collection is necessary to 

meet the Government Performance and 

Results Act of 1993, Public Law 103–62; 

107 Stat. 285, that requires agencies to 

have strategic plans and to consult with

customer satisfaction.

households.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Summary of Information Collection 

The Department of Defense Education 

Activity (DoDEA) Customer Satisfaction 

Survey for Sponsors and Students will 

be administered to DoDEA students in 

grades 4–12, and to all parents and/or 

sponsors of DoDEA students. 

Participating in the survey is completely 

voluntary and will be administered 

through an online, Web-based 

technology. In order to have comparison 

between DoDEA parents and parents of 

students in U.S. public schools, some 

survey questions from the Phi Delta 

Kappa/Gallup Poll of the Public’s 

Attitudes Toward Schools will be used. 

Additional survey questions were 

developed to address specific issues and 

needs within DoDEA. The surveys will 

give parents/sponsors and students an 

opportunity to comment on their overall 

levels of satisfaction with DoDEA 

schools, as well as on specific 

programmatic issues related to 

Department of Defense schools, 

including curriculum, communication, 

and technology. The surveys will be 

administered biennially. 

The information derived from these 

surveys will be used to improve 

planning efforts at all levels throughout 

DoDEA. Schools, districts, and areas 

will use the survey results to gain 

insight into the satisfaction levels of 

sponsors and students, which is one of 

many measures used for future planning 

of programs and services offered to 

DoDEA’s students. The survey results 

will also be used as an outcome measure 

to monitor progress on the goals of the 

DoDEA Community Strategic Plan.
