Do Alameda's High School Students Feel Safe on Campus?

Fewer than three out of 100 high school juniors in Alameda reported feeling unsafe at school, according to a 2010 survey of students statewide. In fact, Alameda  Unified School District high schoolers feel safer than students at most high schools in Alameda County.

That’s just one detail gleaned from a mountain of information available on a new website looking at the physical and mental health of California’s youth. Drawing from a variety of sources, including the California Healthy Kids Survey and the state Department of Education, kidsdata.org aims to promote “the health and well being of children by making trustworthy information easily accessible.”

Kidsdata is a project of the Lucile Packard Foundation For Children's Health, according to the San Jose Mercury News.
