� Background information about your drug � http: //www. drugabuse. gov/drugs-abuse � Key Findings about nationwide teen drug use from the Monitoring the Future Report � http: //www. monitoringthefuture. org/pubs/mon ographs/mtf-overview 2013. pdf

� Before we surveyed Von Steuben students we expected that 75% of students would think that alcohol is a dangerous drug. � We thought there would be a 64% of students would think alcohol is a great risk. � We predicted that 90% of students would think that it is easy to get alcohol. � We thought 40% of students would have been drunk in the past month.

� We surveyed 30 12 th grade students about their personal opinions on alcohol. � The survey was conducted at 10: 20 am � Took place at Krier’s senior seminar class in room 120 � Students anonymously answered a 6 question survey based on alcohol

• 18% of the female students indicated they have been drunk in the past two weeks • 26% of the male students indicated they have been drunk in the past two weeks 30% 26% 25% 20% 22% 18% 15% All Student Belief in God Male Students who have been drunk 10% 5% 0% Students who have been drunk by gender Female Students who have been drunk

Nationwide 48% 24% Nationwide Von Steuben

Nationwide 36% 14% Nationwide Von Steuben

� Our hypothesis was incorrect since only 24% of 30 Von Steuben students think alcohol is a great risk. � 91% of seniors nationwide think alcohol is easy to get while 87% of Von Steuben students agree. This was fairly close � 70% of seniors nationwide disapprove of the substance. 30% of Von Steuben disapprove as well. Not close with the nationwide results which was very surprising. � Maybe we got these results because they were honest opinions.

� We’re still curious about: �Is beer or wine safer to drink than hard liquor? �How do you know if it’s okay to drink? � If we did further research we would anonymously ask about the student’s ethnicity, family income, and drug history. � To get more specific results we would anonymously survey same grade students in other high schools and summarize our results based on the schools location. � We didn’t have a larger variety of answers to our questions.
