"Healthy Youth Survey" Coming In October
This fall, Mount Vernon School District students in grades 6, 8, 10, and 12 and across Washington State will be asked to complete a Healthy Youth Survey. The survey asks questions that are related to students' increased risk of injury, poor health outcomes, and alcohol and drug use. Survey results are used by schools, communities and the state and local health departments to plan programs to support our youth and reduce their risks. The survey is scheduled for the week of October 13-17, 2008.
Student participation is completely voluntary and anonymous and the administration procedures are designed to protect student privacy and anonymity. Students are not asked for their names or identification numbers when they complete the survey.
Additional information about the Healthy Youth Survey 2008 can be found at the following web sites: http://www.hys.wa.gov/ and www3.doh.wa.gov/hys. To opt out of participation in the survey, please contact us at 360-428-6131.
