Public Health Youth Survey
Students in Grade 7 and 10 with the Upper Grand District School Board and the Wellington Catholic District School Board will be asked to complete an anonymous survey about their health, learning, and development. This voluntary, web-based survey will be completed during class time between April and May 2012. It will ask students questions about physical activity, eating habits, time spent with family and friends, sense of safety, and school involvement. Parents of students who will be completing the survey will receive an information letter prior to the survey date.
