YRBS Survey The YRBS is a national and state survey of students in grades 6 through 12 that assesses priority health risk behaviors. Charlotte-Mecklenburg Schools has participated in the YRBS since 2009 and especially in light of the pandemic, remains committed to this biannual effort to understand state of adolescent health and well-being. Randomly selected classes will be surveyed. If you would like to opt your child out of this survey you can find the opt-out forms on our school website under "School Announcements." These forms can be sent to the school if you do not want your child to take part in the survey. If you have additional questions about the survey please email Les Spell, Data and Policy Consultant at the NC Department of Public Instruction at Les.Spell@dpi.nc.gov Join Us at Brixx Foxcroft
