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.
