MN Student Survey

The Minnesota Student Survey (MSS) is one of the longest-running youth surveys in the nation. It is a triennial survey that began in 1989. The survey is an anonymous statewide school-based survey conducted to gain insights into the world of students and their experiences.

The next MSS will be administered February 11th 2025 to students in grades five, eight, nine and 11.

State, county and district results for 2013, 2016, 2019 and 2022 are available on this page from MDE.

In early February samples of each survey will be placed in the district office.   You are welcome to come to the district office and view them.  They are not reproducible.  No copies will be made.

In January a letter will be sent home to explain the process and notify the parents/guardians of their rights to view the survey and opt out if your family chooses to do so.

We will administer the survey to all levels sometime on February 11th in all buildings.
