PRINCIPAL SURVEY COVER LETTER
Dear [PRINCIPAL NAME]:
Your school is participating in the national Evaluation of the Teacher Incentive Fund (TIF) conducted by <TBD> for the U.S. Department of Education. This important study will produce valuable information on the impact of performance-based incentive programs on student achievement, the career paths of principals and teachers, and the ability of schools to retain high-quality staff.
As part of the study, school principals are being asked to complete a Web-based survey this spring 2015. The survey will take about 30 minutes of your time. The survey is designed to learn about the hiring practices of school administrators, understand how principals and teachers are evaluated and compensated for their performance, and assess principals’ understanding of the TIF program. The survey also collects information on principals’ demographic characteristics, educational background, and professional experiences.
While your participation is voluntary, the information collected from principals like you will be extremely important to the study’s findings. We will mail you a check for $20 in appreciation of your participation upon receipt of the completed questionnaire this year and each subsequent year.
The information you provide in this survey will be kept strictly confidential and will not be shared with anyone outside the study team. District officials, principals, and school staff will not have access to the survey data. Responses will be presented only in aggregate form and will not identify any individual or school.
Please use the information below to access the TIF principal survey.

According to the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995, no persons are required to respond to a collection of information unless such collection displays a valid OMB control number. The valid OMB control number for this information collection is 1850-0876. Public reporting burden for this collection is estimated to average 30 minutes per respondent, including the time to review instructions, search existing data resources, gather the data needed, and complete and review the information collection. The obligation to respond to this collection is voluntary. If you have any comments or concerns regarding the status of your individual submission of this survey, please contact (U.S. Department of Education, Institute of Education Sciences, 555 New Jersey Ave, NW, Washington, DC 20208) directly.

This survey is part of the national evaluation of the Teacher Incentive Fund (TIF), a federally funded initiative that will provide valuable information on the potential impact of performance-based incentive programs on student achievement and educator mobility. The survey includes questions about your background, your school’s hiring practices, classroom assignments, and knowledge and perceptions of the TIF funded program.
We would like you to know that:
This survey is voluntary, but your response is critical for producing valid and reliable data about your district’s TIF funded program. You may skip any questions you do not wish to answer; however, we hope that you answer as many questions as you can.
The survey takes about 30 minutes to complete, and once you have completed it, we will send you $20 to compensate you for your time.
Refusal to participate in the principal survey will not affect your employment, or relationship with your school or the evaluation partners, including the U.S. Department of Education, in any way.
The study will provide important information that can be used by principals and other educators. Specifically, we will learn whether incentive programs may have a positive impact on student achievement and teacher and principal retention.
Responses to this data collection will be used only for statistical purposes. The reports prepared for this study will summarize findings across the sample and will not associate responses with a specific school or individual. We will not provide information that identifies you or your school to anyone outside the study team, except as required by law. Additionally, no one in your school or district will see your responses.
Participation in the principal survey does not impose any special risks to you as a respondent other than accidental disclosure of information. Safeguards are in place to ensure individual respondent’s confidentiality including restricted access to questionnaire data and separating identifying information such as name and school from survey responses. All contractor staff sign a confidentiality pledge and all staff with access to study data have received clearance from the U.S. Department of Education and are subject to severe legal consequences for any breach of confidentiality.
An IRB has reviewed and approved this study. If you have any questions about your rights as a research participant, you can contact IRB at 1-800-xxx-xxxx.
