Stress With Parents and School Survey

The purpose of this survey was to find out about a variety of seniors at West stresses with school and with their parents.

Stress: I believe that two of the biggest stresses

teens’ today have are from school (and schoolwork), and from their parents. I will use the results from the 19 students who took my survey to find out if I am correct in thinking this.

On a scale of one to four (four being greatest), how often are you able to do you homework?
