9th Grade Survey

If you have few extra minutes, perhaps you can help a class of 9th grade students in California out by completing this survey.

Here’s more information about this survey:

This survey comes from a ninth grade English class in California. We are interested in gathering the opinions of any American teenager willing to respond. Our goal is to compare our survey results with the information found in a book we’re studying.
