Student Protection Readiness Checklist

A 2-minute assessment to help you understand how prepared you are to recognize, document, and respond if something may be wrong.

Sometimes it's not obvious.

There's no single moment where everything becomes clear. Instead, it's a series of small things:

  • a shift in mood
  • less excitement about school
  • shorter conversations
  • something that just feels… off

“Do I need to be concerned\u2026 or am I overthinking this?”

That uncertainty is exhausting.

Are you able to recognize early shifts in behavior or emotion?
