Based on students’ agreement with the statement “I feel safe when I am at school” <strong>and</strong><br />
incidents of stealing, bullying <strong>and</strong> injury happening to the student or someone in their<br />
class in the last month. High level indicates students agree a little or a lot with feeling safe<br />
at school, had one or fewer incidents happen to them, <strong>and</strong> had one or fewer incidents<br />
happen to someone in their class in the last month. Low level indicates that students<br />
disagree a little or a lot with feeling safe at school, had two or more incidents happen to<br />
them, <strong>and</strong> had two or more incidents happen to someone in their class in the last month.<br />
Medium level includes all other combinations of responses.<br />
( ) St<strong>and</strong>ard errors appear in parentheses. Because results are rounded to the nearest<br />
whole number, some totals may appear inconsistent.<br />
Percentage of Students<br />
at High SSS<br />
An “r” indicates data are available for 70–84% of the students. An “s” indicates data are<br />
available for 50–69% of the students. An “x” indicates data are available for less than<br />
50% of the students.<br />
A tilde (~) indicates insufficient data to report achievement.<br />
