Manson Schools to administer statewide Healthy Youth Survey Oct. 2021

Manson School District will administer Washington’s Healthy Youth Survey to students in grades 8 and 10 on October 20, and to grade 12 on October 21. This statewide survey collects critical data regarding youth health, focusing on mental health, substance use, and other behavioral issues. Local officials highlight the importance of participation, as the survey results will directly impact the formulation of health programs and policies aimed at improving student well-being. Historical data from previous surveys have led to initiatives addressing pressing health concerns among youth. The district encourages parents to support their children's participation to ensure a comprehensive understanding of health trends.

By engaging students in this survey, Manson Schools demonstrate a proactive approach to fostering a healthier community. The survey not only reflects the district's commitment to student health but also serves as a vital resource for state-level health strategies. Results will be shared with stakeholders to inform future health initiatives.
