9th TO 12th GRADE NUTRITION EDUCATION SURVEY 
Instructions for Data Entry 
Rev 09/23/14

Instructions for Data Entry:   
Enter the circled response into WebNEERS for all questions. 
Examples: 
       For Question 1, if the child circled “0 times”, enter “0” into WebNEERS.
       For Question 5, if the child circled “Never”, enter “1” into WebNEERS. 
       For Question 7 enter a value from 0 to 7. 

If the child does not respond to a question on the survey, please do not enter any value into WebNEERS; the question should be left blank. Do NOT enter as a zero since zeroes are actual response options for some items.
