Youth in Schools Data Available on Kidsdata
A comprehensive suite of data, Youth in Schools, includes new and updated indicators across more than a dozen topics from the viewpoint of California’s students and school staff. These data are available for state, county, and school district levels, and student-reported data are easily customizable by grade level, gender, race/ethnicity, sexual orientation, parent education level and level of school connectedness.
Youth in Schools data come from the California Healthy Kids Survey (CHKS) and California School Staff Survey (CSSS), the largest statewide surveys of school climate, risk behaviors, and protective factors in the nation. This data release is made possible by a partnership with WestEd who developed and administered these surveys for the California Department of Education.
Explore behaviors, identify disparities, and take action with hundreds of findings about Youth in Schools at your fingertips.
