Lanark County Survey Findings
Results of the 2022 and 2024 surveys of Grade 10 students
Method and Data Collection
Participants were high school students who attended school on the day of the survey. Schools across four regions in Lanark took part in the survey.
Using a process developed by ICSRA, data was collected with an online questionnaire in the Alchemer software. The survey was conducted during classroom hours. Participation was voluntary, and students were free to answer the survey in whole or in part, skip any question at will, and change their minds about participation at any time.
