Hi, Joel. I have to say that I agree with the responses that you have already received. In particular, Karen's suggestion to read more about the work around Positive Childhood Experiences and the H.O.P.E. framework. Robert Sege's work closely aligns with research from Dr. Bruce Perry that has definitively shown that a child's relational health is better predictor of future outcomes than their ACE score. Not all children with a high ACE score need supportive services at school or in their community. Children who have a low PCE score and a low ACE score are often at MORE risk than a child with a high ACE score balanced with a high PCE score.
In addition to the fears that have already been expressed regarding "profiling" and stigma, I would worry that using an ACE screener alone would not catch the kids that have very low relational scores and these are often the kids who need more support. I'm guessing your schools already have a number of screens they use that accomplish the same aim as an ACE screen - it may be helpful to add the PCE screener into the mix to see what kids are missing. Dr. Perry's new book, What Happened to You? explains this science in a way that has helped me make more sense of the implications and how I communicate it. Maybe it will help you too. Good luck in your efforts to try to get kids what they need.
