Read MoreOur school will be participating in the Washington State Healthy Youth Survey on Wednesday, October 18 during first period for grades 8, 10, and 12. Participation in the survey is voluntary and the student’s answers are anonymous. There are no codes or information used to match a survey to a student. Survey results are used by schools, communities, and state agencies to plan programs to support our youth and reduce their risks.
The Healthy Youth Survey includes questions related to physical activity and diet, unintentional and intentional injury, substance abuse, sexual behaviors, abuse, risk and protective factors, and access to school- based services.
To opt out please email Renee Quinn, rquinn@monteschools.org by Monday, October 15.
