Georgia Student Health Survey

Parents, all of our students are scheduled to participate in the Georgia Student Health Survey between January 17 and March 2. This survey is administered by the State Department of Education as part of our requirements to fulfill the Safe and Drug Free Schools and Communities Act. To see the survey questions please click here.

Our desire is to involve parents in the education of their children. If you do not wish for your child to participate in this important activity, please sign and return the opt-out form to the school by 2/1/2012 to your student's 1st period teacher. Click here to download and print the form.

All Juniors and Seniors are eligible to take this test and there is no cost. Please remember that this test is not just for students who are interested in the military but it is a great opportunity to link achievement with interest and to explore careers related to the information.
