California School Climate Survey

For complete information on the California School Climate Survey visit the CSCS site!

The California Department of Education now requires school districts that accept Title IV or TUPE funds to conduct the California School Climate Survey (CSCS) in conjunction with the CHKS.

The survey gathers information from school staff that, in conjunction with CHKS student data, will enrich a school district's ability to understand and address the impact of substance use and violence on the students and the school and also provides an insight into school-climate and connectedness. Districts may also add questions of their own choosing as a custom feature.

The current CSCS (2009-10) is provided here for your review as an example. To learn more about the survey, including when, where, and how the survey must be administered, read Part III of the CHKS Guidebook.
