1. States and districts listed above had weighted
data for both the 2007 YRBS and 2006 Profiles. This means that for YRBS, the
site achieved at least a 60% overall response rate. For Profiles, the site
achieved at least a 70% school response rate. With weighted data, it is
possible to say, for example, "X% of high school students in our state
smoked cigarettes during the past month and X% of middle schools and high schools in our state
taught tobacco use prevention education."

YRBS
The Youth Risk Behavior Surveillance System
(YRBSS) monitors priority health-risk behaviors and the prevalence
of obesity and asthma among youth and young adults. YRBSS includes a
national school-based survey conducted by the CDC and state,
territorial, tribal, and
local surveys conducted by state, territorial, and local education and health
agencies and tribal governments.
Profiles
The School Health Profiles Survey (Profiles) is a system of surveys
assessing school health policies and programs in states,
territories, tribes, and large
urban school districts. Profiles surveys are conducted biennially by
state, territorial, and local education and health agencies and tribal governments among middle
school and high
school principals and lead health education teachers.
SHPPS
The School Health Policies and Programs Study (SHPPS) is a national
survey periodically conducted to assess school health policies and
