Passive Consent For SAYO

I would like to opt my student(s) OUT of SAYO Participation

To find out how children and youth are doing, we
will be using a questionnaire called the Survey of Academic and Youth Outcomes (SAYO).

The SAYO looks at youth’s participation in afterschool activities and measures healthy
outcomes for children and youth. Your child may be invited to complete a brief afterschool survey. The survey will ask questions about what your child thinks of the program
and about some of the ways he or she may be benefiting from attending the program.

The information your child provides will be extremely valuable in helping us to improve our
program. All information collected will be kept confidential. Your child’s name will not
appear on SAYO materials. All findings from the surveys will be combined and reported
on the group level. No individual children or youth will be identified.

We do not see any risks to you or your child associated with participating. The information gathered will be used to improve our afterschool program and to generate greater support for afterschool programs in the community. Your participation is voluntary.

We encourage all parents to agree to allow their children to participate so that we can have
the most complete information possible about how our program is affecting children and
youth.

Please check the box only if you DO NOT
wish for your child to participate. If you have any questions about the SAYO please contact
the Afterschool Site Manager.
