Behavioral and Emotional Screening System

Hello Ford Parents,

Barney Ford needs your help to learn more about our students' social-emotional strengths and needs. This year we're asking parents to complete the BESS (Behavioral and Emotional Screening System) questionnaire for each of their children. The results help our social-emotional support team provide interventions to all students in need. The questionnaire takes up to 5 minutes per child and can be completed on any phone, tablet, or computer with internet access. If you have any additional questions about the BESS, please refer to the FAQ attached to this email or reach out to school psychologists Lindsey Kline, lindsey_kline@dpsk12.net and Nicole Caraveo, nicole_brodeur@dpsk12.net.
