 Georgia Student Health Survey


The Georgia Student Health Survey (GSHS) is an anonymous, statewide survey instrument created by the Georgia Department of Education in collaboration with other state partners. The GSHS is administered online each year to students in grades 3-12. Middle and high school students (grades 6-12) participate in the standard survey and elemetary students (grades 3-5) participate in an abbreviated survey. Survey results assist in the identification of safety, climate, and health issues that impact student achievement and help guide school prevention and intervention strategies.

​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​FY21 Student Wellness Survey​​

The Georgia Student Health Survey was not administered during the 2020-2021 school year.

Results from the Student Wellness Survey provide districts and schools with data regarding the non-academic barriers to learning being faced by their students.
