Section 53F-2-522  \nrequires the Utah State Board of Education (USBE) to submit areport on mental health screening programs in participating local education agencies (LEAs) . LEAs may implement a mental health screening for participating students using an evidencebased screening program. The State Board is required to report on this program to the Education Interim Committee annually on or before August 30. This year marks the fourth year for this report.  \nSchool-Based Mental Health Screening Programs Report  \nEXECUTIVE SUMMARY  \nUtah Code 53F-2-522 and Board Rule R277-625, Mental Health Screeners, sets standards for Local Education Agencies (LEAs) to implement approved mental health screening programs for students. The legislature has appropriated a $1,000,000 for the program in 2024, however prior the allocation was $500,000 .  \nDuring the 2023-2024 school year, 60 of the 155 LEAs statewide participated in the school-based mental health screening program. Those 60 LEAs screened 10,380 students for the possible presence of symptoms related to anxiety, depression, or suicidal ideation. As a result of the screenings, approximately 2,869 students (or 28%) were then connected to services either within the LEA or as a referral to community resources. Charts within the report provide a comparison from the 2020-2021 school year to the 2023-2024 school year.  \nThe creation of the list of screeners was approved in February 2021 by the Utah State Board of Education (USBE) . The goal of the compiled list was to identify the most comprehensive set of evidence-based tools that specifically targeted mental health conditions. Doing so provides LEAs the best possible selection to choose from allowing for a wide range of choices and thus more control at the local level. Along with the list of screening tools, the Board also approved three mental health conditions for which schools could screen: anxiety, depression, and suicidal ideation. These three conditions capture the leading mental health conditions that currently affect youth throughout the state.  \nThe data presented compares the end of year report for the School-Based Mental Health Screening Program since inception to this past year (2023-2024) .  \nSince the implementation of the School-Based Mental Health Screening Program, participation has increased significantly due in part to H. B. 403 (2023) which required all LEAs to submit a Record of Determination whether the LEA will participate in the screening program or not. In 2020-2021, participation was 18 LEAs. As shown in the chart, participation has increased to 60 LEAs in 2023-2024.  \nThe complete list of LEAs and their participation status can be found in Appendix A.  \n\n| Participation Status | Number of LEAs |\n| --- | --- |\n| Participating Districts | 35 |\n| Participating Charters | 25 |\n| Non-Participating Districts | 5 |\n| Non-Participating Charters | 85 |\n| No response | 5 |\n\nOf the over 10,000 students screened, approximately 45% were screened for anxiety, 42% for depression, and 14% for suicidal ideation indicated a need for follow up assessments.  \nThe chart below shows the number of students screened per participating LEA.
