Gallup Student Poll Overview
The Gallup Student Poll is a 20-item measure of hope, engagement, and
wellbeing. Gallup researchers targeted these three variables because they
met the following criteria:
- They can be reliably measured
- They have a meaningful relationship with or impact on
educational outcomes
- They are malleable and can be enhanced through deliberate action
- They are not measured directly by another large-scale survey
- Some studies indicate they are not associated with a student’s FARL
status or parent’s household income
Hope | ideas and energy we have for the future | Double Hope
Engagement | involvement in/enthusiasm for school | Build Engaged Schools
Wellbeing | how we think about and experience our lives | Boost Wellbeing

Gallup Student Poll Overview (continued)
Hope — the ideas and energy we have for the future.
– Hope drives attendance, credits earned, and GPA of high school
students. Hope predicts GPA and retention in college, and hope
scores are more robust predictors of college success than are high
school GPA, SAT, and ACT scores.
Engagement — the involvement in and enthusiasm for school.
– Engagement distinguishes between high performing and low-
performing schools.
Wellbeing — how we think about and experience our lives.
– Wellbeing tells us how our students are doing today and predicts
their success in the future. High school freshmen with high wellbeing
earn more credits with a higher GPA than peers with low wellbeing.
The typical student who is thriving earns 10% more credits and a 2.9
GPA (out of 4.0), whereas a student with low wellbeing, completing
fewer credits, earns a 2.4 GPA.

Annual Gallup Student Poll Overview (continued)
The inaugural Gallup Student Poll in March 2009 surveyed 70,078 students
in from 335 schools and 59 districts located in 18 states and the District
of Columbia.
In fall 2009, Gallup surveyed 246,682 students in grades 5 through 12. Gallup
generated 907 school level scorecards and 93 district level scorecards.
The third administration was in March 2010. Gallup polled 129,500 students
from 509 schools representing 79 districts.
The fourth administration was from September 28 through October 29, 2010.
Gallup polled 266,971 students in over 1,000 schools representing over 100
school districts.
The national Gallup Student Poll will be administered annually in the fall
beginning in October 2011.
– Gallup and partner organizations own the cost for the annual administration for
public schools and districts.
– Schools and districts receive data provided at grade, school, district, state,
and national level.
– The poll is completed via Web Tuesday through Friday during regular school
hours and is validated for students in grades 5 through 12.

GSPi Overview: Community-Based Positive Youth Development
In 2010, Gallup partnered with the Forum for Youth Investment and the
Ready By 21 Partnership to build the enhanced version of the Gallup
Student Poll (GSPi).
GSPi is a Web-based customizable survey platform designed to measure the
hope, engagement, and wellbeing of students.
GSPi provides districts, schools, and out of school organizations the opportunity
to have focused group level analyses and feedback on individual students’ level
of future readiness.
The Ready for the Future (RFF) score is a composite of the student’s hope,
engagement, and wellbeing scores.
The RFF score is reported on a 0 to 6 scale.
– Students receive two points when scoring in the highest category of hope,
engagement, and wellbeing, one point for scoring in the middle category, and zero
points for scoring in the lowest category on each of the scales.
– Reports do not expressly reveal a student’s level of hope, engagement, and wellbeing.
