WMHS students will take the 2023 Youth Risk Behavior Survey (YRBS) on Wednesday, March 15th. This survey was developed by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and is sponsored by the Vermont Department of Health and the Agency of Education. The YRBS has been administered every other year in Vermont since 1993. Topics include personal safety and injury prevention, mental health, nutrition, physical activity, sexual health, substance use, and protective factors.
The results help public health officials, educators, and community organizations to develop and evaluate health-related programs and secure future funding.
Should you decide to opt your child out of taking the survey, please complete the following form and return it to the WMHS main office by Tuesday, March 14th.
