Once again, PRJUSD will be administrating the California Healthy Kids Survey to our students in grades 5, 8 and 11 and non-traditional.
The purpose of this survey is to obtain information from the students about their knowledge, attitudes, and behavior about things that affect learning. It deals with such issues as truancy, safety, harassment, substance use, school connectedness, and learning supports.
Student participation is very important and voluntary. The information provided will help guide district and school efforts to promote safety, enhance learning supports, improve student achievement, and reduce health risks that stand as barriers to learning. The survey will be completed in one class period and should take approximately 35 minutes.
5th grade students: Families MUST return the permission slip indicating if their student can or cannot participate in the survey.
8th and 11th grade and non-traditional students: Families MUST return the permission slip if they DO NOT want their student to participate in the survey.
SURVEY VIEWING: Provided are links to a copy of the survey (English and Spanish) for the high school, middle school, and elementary students. A sample copy of the Parent Survey is available as well.
