NAF Student Survey

The 2025 NAF Student Survey is still LIVE for all NAF students March 3rd - April 30th. Please encourage all NAF students to participate in this year’s survey to provide their valued feedback and for the chance to win prizes!

Question: What is the benefit of NAF students completing the student survey?

Answer: Not only will their anonymized responses be made available to academy leaders for continuous improvement, but the data will be integrated with the NAF graduation profile in ASH, resulting in less data for academy leaders to upload during the 2025 data collection cycle!

Additional Incentive: Students, along with the educators who prompt them to take the survey, are entered into gift card drawings ($25 for students/$200 for teachers). The more of your students who complete the survey, the higher your likelihood of winning!

Question: How Do Students Access the Survey?

Answer: Log in to NAFTrack (https://students.naftrack.org/). The survey should be visible in the “Activities” section of students’ home page. If they do not see it, they can find it by clicking on “Activities” in the top bar (see below). The survey is available in English or Spanish and takes less than 15 minutes to complete!
