A questionnaire given to students at Roy High School asks respondents about their sex histories, abortions and drug and alcohol use — and then provides a score and corresponding label ranging from “nerd” to “indecent.”

It’s enough to have at least one student’s mother wondering what is going on in the course her 16-year-old enrolled in called “Adult Roles and Financial Literacy.”

“I was in shock. I couldn’t believe something like this was handed out to students,” said Heather Danks Miller. “My daughter actually filled it out in class and was upset about the grading.”

The survey, from a 1981 Dear Abby column, is 30 questions long.
