The SPIRSS project includes partnerships between the WSU School Psychology Program
and three rural school districts in Kansas. This project, funded by the U.S. Department
of Education, provides the partnering districts with access to essential school-based
social, emotional, behavioral, and educational assessment services that are currently
not readily available. This project was developed to support the identified need for
school based mental health services in rural districts. Furthermore, the SPIRSS project
develops applied learning opportunities for School Psychology graduate students during
their field experience.
