Objective 　To learn the current status of knowledge about Schistosomiasis prevention among high school students in the Three Gorges Reservoir Area in Chongqing and to provide baseline information for the implementation of the intervention.
Methods 　We took a cluster random sampling method and selected 1 068 high school students from the Three Gorges Reservoir Area and control areas to conduct a questionnaire survey.
Results 　The awareness rate of the knowledge about schistosomiasis prevention was low, and the awareness rate of 8 items out of 10 was even below 20%. The passing rates in the Three Gorges Reservoir Area and control areas were 16% or less.
Conclusion 　It is necessary to perform various forms of health education intervention for high school students in the Three Gorges Reservoir Area, strengthening their awareness of schistosomiasis prevention and enhancing their self-protection capability, which can thus lead to people’s deeper understanding of schistosomiasis prevention.
