Exit Survey
 
 
This survey is anonymous. We do not record your name. We will use the information you give us to understand whether there is bullying at Callaway High. The first section asks about demographics (class, ethnicity, gender, etc.). The second section defines bullying and asks whether you have seen any in the last month. The third section asks you what your response to bullying would be (or has been). The fourth section asks about your point of view on bullying. Please answer the questions honestly. Your answers will help us understand whether we should develop a program at CHS. Thank you for completing this survey.
