The students in the school my child(ren) attend do not engage in risky behaviors. Why is this survey needed?
A. It is great that the children in your school are healthy, and this is why we need their input to make a positive impact in the data collected. To have an accurate picture of health-related behaviors of students in Boulder County, we need all students in sampled classrooms to participate, even if some students do not practice these behaviors. To make sure we develop programs that will be the most beneficial, we must understand what kids are really doing, rather than speculate as adults about the prevalence of these behaviors.
