GWHS 2021 7th Grade (Pre-event Survey)

Drug Store Project 2021

The Drug Store Project is a comprehensive drug prevention event designed for our community's 6th grade students. COVID caused our team to cancel last year's event and it will not allow us to hold an inperson event this year safely so we've come up with a plan! We will be working with the many agencies who want to keep you safe and healthy and together we will create a video production of The Drug Store Project which you will see in April. We would like to measure how much our students learn from our event. Your answers are confidential so it is very important that you answer to the best of your ability without assistance from anyone. You will also take a survey after you watch the event in April. Together it will help us to improve the program that we provide for the most important people in Tahoe; you!
