JED Student Survey

Seattle Public Schools has partnered with Forefront Suicide Prevention and The Jed Foundation to enhance our efforts to support the mental health and well-being of our students.

As part of this effort, six district high schools are participating in JED High School Program delivered by Forefront, a 3-year program that provides high schools and districts with expert support, evidence-based best practices, and data-driven guidance to protect student mental health and prevent suicide.

Students and staff at our school are being surveyed to inform West Seattle High School’s strategic planning process and subsequent actions. We believe that this survey can provide all students with a voice. Student input is critical to improving student well-being, academic success, and social connectedness; we hope that families will choose to opt their students in to this assessment.

If you would like for your student to participate in the survey, please fill out this consent form by November 24th.  Provide your consent.

Student responses will be kept confidential and secure, and will not be connected with their name, email, or any other information that identifies them. If you allow your student to participate, your student may choose to skip questions or stop participating at any time. The survey typically takes around 30-45 minutes to complete.

For study-related questions, please email the principal investigator Dr. Michelle  Mullen at HSStudentSurvey@jedfoundation.org. Feel free to reach out to Ms. Nutters, School Counselor, or Ms. Claus, Assistant Principal, for more information.

Sincerely,

West Seattle JED Team
