| NOTE: Data on school-sponsored activities are based on student responses and are weighted by W1STUDENT. Student reports about school-sponsored activities refer to the period “since the beginning of the last school year,” which for most of these students was 8th grade, or the fall of 2008. Data on non-school-sponsored activities are based on parent responses and are weighted by W1PARENT. Parent reports about non-school-sponsored activities refer to the last 12 months. Race categories exclude persons of Hispanic ethnicity. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
