📘 What is the California Healthy Kids Survey?

Developed for the California Department of Education (CDE) as part of the California School Climate, Health, and Learning Survey (CalSCHLS) system, the CHKS is a modular, anonymous assessment for students that provides reliable data to guide school and student improvement.

At Placer High School, the 2026–2027 High School Core Module asks students about their behaviors, experiences, and attitudes across key timeframes (lifetime, past 12 months, and past 30 days) to strengthen campus programs and student support.
