Important information regarding WHY Survey – a joint survey between UGDSB and WDG Public Health
This year Upper Grand District School Board and Wellington Dufferin Guelph Public Health are collecting information on student health and well-being from youth, parents and school staff. The Well-Being and Health Youth Surveys are designed to help us understand how well we are doing creating safe, welcoming, and inclusive environments in our schools. It also provides important information about the physical and mental health of youth in our area.

Mr. S. Gayfer - Principal, Erin District High School
