The Youth Risk Behavior Surveillance System (YRBSS or YRBS) is administered biannually throughout the United States to a sample of middle and high school students (grades 6-12) and is designed to monitor priority health-risk behaviors that contribute to the leading causes of mortality, morbidity and social problems among youth and adults. This department helps in the administration of the BCPS survey every other year to high schools (since 1991) and to middle schools (since 2013).
