California Healthy Kids Survey

Survey Information

The California Healthy Kids Survey (CHKS) is the largest statewide survey of resiliency, protective factors, and risk behaviors in the nation. It is a powerful tool for use in Grades 6-12 that can help schools and districts accurately identify areas of student and school strengths and weaknesses, and address related needs. It provides a comprehensive, data-driven, decision-making process to guide efforts to improve school climate, learning supports, and engagement, as well as identify and increase the quality of health, prevention, and youth development programs.

Across California, the CHKS has led to a better understanding of the relationship between students' health behaviors and academic performance, and is frequently cited by state policymakers and the media as a critical component of school improvement efforts to help guide the development of more effective health, prevention, and youth development programs.

TTUSD administers this survey to 6th, 7th, 9th, & 11th graders on a bi-annual basis.  All parents are notified when the survey will be administered.  Sixth grade students require active parent consent.  Please read the information below for Elementary, Middle School, and High School.
