Dear Students,

Our school has elected to participate in the Gallup Student Poll. By taking this important step, we are joining thousands of other schools in helping to measure the hope, encouragement, and well-being of America’s students. By participating in this survey, you can safely share what you think about your life in school, at home, and in your community.

A Web-Based Survey

The Gallup Student Poll is a 10-minute Web-based survey for students in grades 5 through 12. Gallup is a polling company that will collect and safely store all of your responses. Gallup will not reveal your personal responses. The Gallup Student Poll contains 20 core items and demographic items. After the survey period is over, each principal will receive an electronic scorecard with your school’s results.

Survey Dates

The Gallup Student Poll will take place once during each school year. (The first poll was taken in March 2009.) Students will take the survey during school hours during a selected two- or three- week period Tuesday through Friday.

More Information

If you have questions about the survey or would like to discuss how the questions made you feel, please talk to your parent/guardian, teacher, or guidance counselor. You may also visit the Gallup Student Poll website at www.gallupstudentpoll.com.

Thank you for participating in the Gallup Student Poll. Your opinions count!

Sincerely,

Mr. R. Tommy Canterbury
