Guest guest Posted June 16, 2006 Report Share Posted June 16, 2006 http://boardbuzz.nsba.org/archives/024688.php excerpt from today's blog - very interesting......... The Washington Post is reporting today that "a growing number of U.S. schools are screening teenagers for suicidal tendencies or signs of mental illness." Proponents of these screenings say that they could help to reduce the more than 1,700 suicides committed by adolescents each year. One such screening, TeenScreen, which was developed by Columbia University, has already been administered to more than 150,000 children across the country.
