Key Findings from the Stanton Middle School/Community Needs Assessment: 31% of sixth graders reported having been bullied during school hours; 4% of sixth graders reported using cigarettes (this percentage reflects current cigarette use, i.e., any use in the 30 days prior to the survey). However, this percentage increased to 19% among eighth graders; over the course of the year, the average absentee rate was 11%. However, this percentage reached 19% on certain spring days.

Based on this assessment, the Planning Team identified these prevention priorities for the Stanton Middle School: Reduce bullying, reduce tobacco use, increase school attendance.
