The Chehalis School District is participating in the Washington State Healthy Youth Survey during fall 2021. The survey will be given to students in Grades 6, 8, 10, and 12 in large districts and students in Grades 6 through 12 in small school districts

The Healthy Youth Survey includes questions related to physical activity and diet, unintentional and intentional injury, substance use, sexual behaviors, abuse, risk and protective factors, and access to schoolbased services. Survey results are used by schools, communities, and state agencies to plan programs to support our youth and reduce their risks

Participation in the survey is voluntary and the studentsanswers are anonymous

Most schools will be administering the survey online this year. No privacy issues were identified in the Esurvey pilot conducted in 2019. This year, schools and districts are being instructed to disable any recording, keystroke tracking, and video capture software on schoolissued devices used to take the survey. They are also going to instruct students to do the same on personal devices used to take the survey before they begin. If you use any software to monitor the device your student will use to take the survey, please turn it off before they begin to ensure their honest participation

Please read the Parent and Student Notification Letter for more information about the Healthy Youth Survey
