Survey Questionnaires
Survey Forms A and B are for older students in 8th grade through 12th grade. Forms A and B are randomly distributed so half of the students answer Form A and the other half answer Form B.
Survey Form C is for younger students in 6th grade (and 7th grade in small school districts).
For the 2021 HYS, there were two types of optional questions.
-
Form B included six optional questions on sexual behavior and abuse that schools could choose to exclude from the survey.
See the Extra Question Fact Sheet for more information. - Forms A and B included two questions on sexual orientation and gender identity to make the survey more inclusive for all students and to help address health disparities. Schools districts could request an exemption to exclude these questions.
Each survey administration, the survey questions are reviewed and adjusted based on statewide and local needs. The following “changes” documents provide a description of the changes in survey questions from administration to administration:
