MOST Frazee-Vergas students DON'T drink alcohol or vape in a typical month. based on 2026 PCN Student Survey
The work we do revolves around correcting misperceptions of the norms in our community. We find out the norms in our community by administering and analyzing surveys. In 2022 the Minnesota Student Survey was administered. In 2023, 2024 & 2026 the Positive Community Norms Student Survey was completed. These surveys provide the data to help us focus and narrow the disparity between the actual and the perceived norms.
