California Healthy Kids Survey |
|
Wednesday, 04 January 2012 |
During the month of February, children in BUSD’s 7th, 9th, and 11th grades along with all participating children at Liberty High School will be taking a Healthy Kids Survey. The survey results, at age appropriate levels, will provide information regarding such topics as school violence, after school safety, physical activity, nutrition, and alcohol, tobacco, or other drug use. This is a statewide survey which is administered every other year. Besides the information gathered about children in our own Solano County schools, we also receive some funding for our participation. Survey answers are completely anonymous. There will be no survey in the elementary schools this year. Children in the upper grades can take the survey unless their parents specifically disapprove it. Also, children who do take the survey will have the choice to not answer any or all of the questions, or discontinue taking the survey at any time. If any parent has any doubt and does NOT want their child to participate in the survey, please contact your school’s attendance office. There is a specific form to sign if you wish to withdraw your child from taking the survey. You can come in and sign it or it can be mailed/e-mailed to you. Examples of the surveys are available at each school and at the Special Services office at the district office. More information about the Healthy Kids survey can be found at: |
