California Healthy Kids Survey
The California Healthy Kids Survey (CHKS) is an anonymous, confidential survey of school climate and safety, student wellness, and youth resiliency. The survey will be administered to students in grades three through 12. This data is used to improve the school learning environment, academic achievement, and the health and wellbeing of our youth. It includes questions on the supports provided to children; school connectedness, climate, and safety; and risk factors such as violence and substance use.Student participation is voluntary and anonymous. Your child does not have to take the survey. No names or any other identifying information is connected to the answers except for the name of the school.
The CHKS is a companion tool to the California School Staff Survey (CSSS) for staff and the California School Parent Survey (CSPS) for parents. Together, they form the California School Climate, Health, and Learning Survey (Cal-SCHLS) System.
