9. PURPOSE
The HYS provides important information about Washington youth. It helps to guide policy and programs that serve youth, especially for the following:
County prevention coordinators
Community public health and safety networks
Other community coalition efforts
Public Schools (District and Building Planning)

10. PURPOSE (con’t)
The HYS data can identify trends in behavior patterns over time. Students in grades 6, 8, 10, and 12 have voluntarily taken the HYS in the fall of even numbered years: 2002, 2004, 2006, 2008 and 2010.
The survey provides information about: safety issues, physical activity and diet, alcohol, tobacco and other drug use, and other related risk factors.

HOW CAN WE USE THE
HEALTHY YOUTH SURVEY
DATA?
The following slides show us a few
very important ways.

12. HEALTH-RELATED BEHAVIORS AND ACADEMIC ACHIEVEMENT
Mounting evidence and experience support the concept that reducing students’ health-risk behaviors has positive impact on their academic performance. The HYS measures several health-related issues, any of which can distract students from school. The survey results may help identify areas where students need specific help.

13. UNDERSTANDING SCHOOL CLIMATE
School climate clearly impacts students’ daily experience. The HYS includes many questions about this topic. Results can be used to create safe and welcoming schools that foster positive school climate and higher academic achievement too.

14. PLANNING AND EVALUATION
PROCESSES
The HYS data can be very useful in the School Improvement Planning (SIP) process.
School building results can be compared over time and compared to district, area, or state results. They can be used to help improve existing programs, or to help justify creation of new programs.
