Youth Sports Survey Opportunity

Students in grades 3-12 are invited to complete a short, anonymous survey about sports including what sports YOU want to try and what you learn from participating in sports. The survey can be accessed online at resonanteducation.com/survey and the token code for Westerville City School District is 10305334333. Your responses are completely anonymous and you can skip any question that you do not want to answer. The State of Play Central Ohio is looking to understand and evaluate the landscape for youth sports in the Central Ohio region. The survey is one element of the final report being produced by The Aspen Institute Project Play with the support of The Columbus Foundation, the Lindy Infante Foundation, the Columbus Youth Foundation, The Columbus Recreation and Parks Department, Nationwide Children’s Hospital and The Chris and Lori Holtmann Fund.
