Student Risk Screening Scale
The Student Risk Screening Scale (SRSS) is a universal screening tool used three times a year to identify students with antisocial behavior patterns for the direct purpose of better understanding how to support students to be academically successful in school. This screening tool consists of seven items that teachers use to rate their classroom of students based on behaviors that they have directly observed during the school year. The SRSS is not intended as an assessment of static traits or personality. It should be used as one of many data sources to indicate student risk.
