2008 High Schools That Work Ninth-Grade Student Survey

Information on the Ninth-Grade Student Survey

The Ninth-Grade Student Survey is administered to a random sample of 100 ninth-grade students, or all ninth-grade students at schools with fewer than 100 ninth-graders. The 2008 administration window is April 1-30, 2008.

The cost is $1,000 for a random sample of 100 or fewer students plus $10 per additional student. This fee includes survey administration and a report of the results. Ninth-Grade Survey reports will be delivered to all participating schools as PDF files on a CD-Rom in early fall 2008. These reports will provide results for all students, but will not detail specific student groups’ results. Your school may also order composite reports for $200 each. Composite reports are in addition to the school report that is provided and provide survey results for a particular group of students. All orders must be submitted by March 28, 2008.
