Do teachers here work as a team?

Every spring, CPS teachers answer the 5Essentials survey about their own school. These five measures describe whether teachers here work as a real team — shown one by one, exactly as published.

Each spoke is one of the five teacher measures. The colored rings show what score range it falls in — dark red near the center means a weak score, dark green at the edge means very strong. The school's polygon sits on top; a dashed outline shows the comparison group.
