RCS GETS IMPROVING EMPLOYEE SURVEY RESULTS

(Richmond, IN)--The Richmond Community School Board met Wednesday night and got the results of a retention survey that was sent to all employees.  Those results generally show an improvement in the overall satisfaction for RCS employees from recent years.  One of the questions asked if employees are happy in their jobs.  Stacy Mopps presented the results:  57.5% said that it is satisfying (in 2023).  Two years later, we're up to almost 67%.  That was a trend that makes me happy," Mopps said.  Employees were also asked the most challenging aspect of their jobs.  The number one answer?  Student discipline.  But, there was some good news there also.  "Even though student discipline is still number one, it dropped almost 20 percentage points," Mopps explained.  Data specific to each school will be shared with that school’s principal.
