Grade 7-8 Student Self-Report Yorkville Middle School Wave 1 Spring 2018
To design programs for middle school students, we need to learn more about what you do and what you think about your school. Sometimes students call each other names and behave in other ways that make the school an unsafe environment. By answering the questions in this survey, you can help us understand what is happening at your middle school and help your teachers, parents, and administrators make plans to address these behaviors. Some of the questions may ask things you have never thought about, so just give us your best answer. All of your answers will be completed confidential - no one, neither your parents nor anyone from your school, will ever see how you answer these questions. However, if you indicate anywhere on the survey that you are thinking of harming yourself or if someone else is currently harming you, then we will give your name to your principal. We will be averaging answers from a large number of students so please be sure to tell us exactly what you think about things. Your participation is voluntary, so you do not have to participate if you do not want to. You can stop completing the survey at any time and you can skip any question that you do not want to answer. Some items might make you feel sad or make you think about some things that might have upset you in the past. Therefore, we encourage you to talk to your friends, family, teachers, or other individuals that you trust after this survey.
