Abstract
In September, 2012, a team of trained interviewers administered a comprehensive survey to 334 5th-7th grade students attending Owl Creek School in Fayetteville, Arkansas. With nearly 70 percent of students eligible for free and reduced lunch, the survey was interested in examining children’s health, well-being, their social relationships, and food insecurity.
