Screening for Risk
In Kansas MTSS, we universally screen students for risk three times per year, and use early warning data such as attendance, behavior referrals and course grades to respond to needs. Additionally, diagnostic tools may be necessary to fully understand and respond to more chronic or acute needs.

Universal risk screeners, such as the SAEBRS, BASC-BESS, Strengths & Difficulties Questionnaire, and SRSS-IE, are designed and validated to find students who are potentially at risk and in need of support. This is a distinct and important purpose that should not be confused with skills assessment.
