Pennsylvania Youth Survey (PAYS) 2023

The PAYS is being administered this fall during the 2023/24 school year.  Local Summary Reports presenting the results will be sent to the Superintendents of participating school districts and private/charter schools in April 2024.

This link will direct you to county-level reports containing a variety of information to provide schools, communities, and families with an early snapshot of the results from the survey so that they can begin to act upon it.  These reports contain information on student mental health, substance use behaviors, and other important data.  Only those counties that took part in the survey online and who had a minimum of two participating districts have a report available. If a district within a county took part via paper/pencil, those results are not included in the county reports. Additionally, please note that this is meant to be preliminary data; there may be some slight changes in the final number report in the Full Summary Reports that will be released in May. This would be due to the addition of additional data from Districts and Other Schools in the County who took part using paper/pencil.
