What is the SRSS-IE Screener?

The Student Risk Screening Scale - Internalizing and Externalizing (SRSS-IE) is a research-backed universal behavioral screening tool designed to identify students at risk for:

Office Discipline Referrals

Suspensions

Academic Failure

With the SRSS-IE, districts can systematically detect both internalizing behaviors (e.g., anxiety, withdrawal) and externalizing behaviors (e.g., aggression, defiance), ensuring every student gets the support they need to succeed.
