Illinois Youth Survey: All 8th grade students are asked to participate in a voluntary survey called the Illinois Youth Survey the week of February 2nd. The purpose of this survey is to better understand Illinois youth risk and protective behaviors as they relate to students and their success. Participation will involve completing a survey, with no names or identification numbers, that will be confidentially administered by a classroom teacher. Your child’s participation will last no more than one class period (40-45 minutes). Here is the link to the opt-out website if you would not like your child to take this exam. Let the Main Office know if you would like your child to opt-out of the survey.
