Missing Teacher Questionnaire Only (Principal asked to give the letter addressed to the Lead Health Education Teacher to the person identified to complete the Lead Health Education Teacher Questionnaire):

Dear Principal:

Thank you for completing the first questionnaire in the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s Test-Retest Reliability Study of the School Health Profiles School Principal Questionnaire. Your input is invaluable.

In addition to the School Principal Questionnaire, we sent a survey link and access code to the Lead Health Education Teacher Questionnaire. We have not received a completed questionnaire from the staff member you designated to participate. Your teacher's input is as important to the success of the study as your input, even if health education is not taught at your school.

Please give the enclosed letter and copy of the Lead Health Education Teacher Questionnaire to the appropriate teacher at your school. This teacher may be your only health education teacher, the department chair, the most senior health education teacher, or the staff member who is most knowledgeable about required instruction on health topics. If you, or your teacher, have any questions about the study, I may be reached at [PHONE NUMBER].

Again, thank you for your help with these surveys.

Sincerely,
