The survey was taken by more than 41,000 students in eighth, 10th and 12th grades across 264 schools in all 15 Arizona counties.
“Schools are invited to participate in the study, so it’s completely voluntary,” said Allyson Horgan, statistical analysis center director at AZCJC. “So, we have 264 schools volunteered to participate."
