The California Healthy Kids Survey, a crucial survey helping schools gather insights into improving academic performance, school climate, and overall student well-being, is now open for students, staff and parents. The survey will remain open until November 29th.
The CHKS is a confidential survey for students in Grades 3 and above, focused on key areas like:
- Student engagement and connectedness
- School safety and climate
- Physical and mental well-being
- Social-emotional learning
Why Participation Matters
Feedback from students, staff, and parents is vital to understanding the school environment and guiding improvement efforts. Your participation ensures that schools have accurate data to address issues like:
- Enhancing school safety and reducing bullying
- Improving student supports and mental health services
- Creating a positive, inclusive school culture
In addition to the student survey, staff are encouraged to complete the California School Staff Survey, and parents are invited to share their perspectives through the California School Parent Survey. Together, these surveys provide a comprehensive view of the school community, helping guide meaningful changes that benefit everyone.
How to Participate The survey is available online, and responses are anonymous. For more information and to access the survey, visit your school’s website or contact your school’s administration office.
Help us build better, safer schools for all students. The survey closes on November 29—make your voice heard!
