Resilency Poll 2019
The Resiliency Poll is a web-based survey for students in grades 3 through 12 that measures: hope for the future, engagement with school, and wellbeing.
Hope is the ideas and energy students have for the future. Engagement is the student's level of involvement in and enthusiasm for school. Wellbeing is how students think about and experience their lives. These variables, based in a wide-range of research and scholarship, are positioned as actionable targets and indicators of success, with links to grades, achievement scores, retention and employment. Through the Resiliency Poll, schools, districts and communities can gather sound, actionable data that can help explain and address school-related challenges and provide key indicators of what can be reinforced to support success for all students. The Resiliency Poll gives students a voice to convey their daily experiences and aspirations for the future.
Our school will receive a composite score on hope, engagement and wellbeing for your student. The assessment will provide school and district leaders with important data outside of standard measures, such as credits earned, GPA and test scores, which can inform our school's programming and initiatives to help ensure success for every student in the future. Your student's individual score will not be shared beyond our school district. Please contact your school principal if you have questions.
If you do
NOT wish to have your student participate in the Northern Kentucky Resiliency Poll, you must sign and return the Opt-out form indicating your refusal to grant permission for your student to participate. The form must be returned to your child's English teacher by Thursday, October 3rd.

KHEAA Accounts
KHEAA has loaded the data file recently submitted by your high school(s) for dual credit scholarship programs. Students who have scholarship eligibility remaining for the 2019-2020 year should see a link on their MyKHEAA accounts to set scholarship preferences for the. The deadline for students to submit preferences for the fall semester is October 1, 2019.
Students in grades 11 and 12 who have Dual Credit Scholarship (DCS) eligibility remaining should see a DCS set preference link on their MyKHEAA account. Students in grades 9-12 who were flagged as taking Career and Technical Education coursework in the file submission should see a Work Ready KY Scholarship (WKDC) set preference link. Some students may see links for both programs.
Beginning this year, students do NOT have to use DCS before WKDC. They can set preferences for each program as needed.
If students anticipate taking spring coursework, KHEAA recommends they go ahead and submit both fall and spring preferences this fall in order to make sure they have funds reserved for spring.
Please note the following tips for setting DC preferences:
- Students will NOT be awarded scholarship funds until after they submit their preferences. A step-by-step instruction guide is attached for you to send to your students.
- Now that links are available, please reach out to your dual credit students to encourage them to go to KHEAA's website and set preferences. KHEAA will periodically send a reminder to students regarding the need to set preferences. However, we've found everything works much faster if the high school is reaching out to them too.
- Students will NOT have a DC preference link if they are missing a KEES account. KHEAA uses the KEES database to obtain the full SSN for dual credit data. This could include students who are new to your school, have recently moved to Kentucky, or do not meet US citizenship requirements (allowed for DCS, not KEES). KHEAA is working the errors and will be in touch if we need additional information for them.
- If students cannot see their DCS or WRKS DC link after signing in to their MyKHEAA account, please see if they can view their KEES account before contacting KHEAA. If KEES is NOT visible, the student may have registered for their MyKHEAA account with an SSN that does not match KHEAA's data. They will need to contact KHEAA technical support at 800-818-2678 to have their MyKHEAA account fixed. If KEES is visible and DC links are not, please contact Dawn Hinton immediately.
