Complete the Universal Mental Health Screening  

You are invited and encouraged to complete a short form to provide valuable input on your student’s mental health and social emotional well being.  

The BESS (Behavior and Emotional Screening System) is a tool that provides a systematic, quick, and reliable way of assessing the behavioral and emotional strengths and potential risk levels in children and adolescents. The results are used to help us identify supports that can help offset current or future mental health risk in students

The form can be completed in less than 5 minutes!
