(More) In contrast to the Texas School Survey of Substance Use, which is a biennial statewide survey, the Texas School Survey of Drug and Alcohol Use is an annual school district-level survey that is also coordinated by the Texas Department of State Health Services and the Public Policy Research Institute (PPRI) at Texas A&M University. The state-funded school district survey results in this profile were produced during years 1989 - 2009 to monitor trends in substance use among public school students. The district results also serve as a basis of comparison with the statewide Texas School Survey of Substance Use results.The tabulated and summary survey results in this profile are categorized by year. We also have created special folders for each year of survey results from participating school districts located in the 10 most populated counties (i.e. Harris, Dallas, Tarrant, Bexar, Travis, El Paso, Collin, Hidalgo, Denton, and Fort Bend, according to 2007 estimates by the Texas State Data Center)._________________ _____________For easier search of survey results from a particular school district, click on the "Directory of Secondary School Surveys" in the Introduction folder.__________________ ____________To view the statewide results for local school districts, click on the Texas School Survey of Substance Use icon below in the Subscribers section of this profile._________________ _______________This profile is part of the ProtectYouth.org community awareness effort to foster greater transparency of the quality of life issues that impact our youth and communities.For additional community information, please visit www.ProtectYouth.org (Less)
