Universal Screener
As we have done for the past four school years, we will once again be administering the Universal Screener with our students this spring. This short, voluntary questionnaire asks students how they are feeling (happy, sad, etc.), if they have someone at school and/or at home they can talk to if they have a problem, if they have healthy coping skills, and if they want to talk with their school counselor. We also provide students with information on healthy living and they can select items they would like to learn more about, such as what to do if they feel overwhelmed or stressed, things to do to feel more calm, what to do if they are angry or mad at someone, or things to do if they are feeling lonely. The information collected will help our school counseling team identify areas in which they can further support our students.
The spring administration of the Universal Screener will take place during the weeks of March 11 and March 18, at Kersey Creek. Please note that this questionnaire will not be completed by our kindergarteners. If you have any questions about the questionnaire or its purpose, please contact your child’s school counselor.
