The aim of this project is to determine the feasibility and specific value of an Integrated Data System that will provide relevant actionable information (academic, social/ emotional skills, and attendance) to school personnel so they can manage limited resources optimally.

It provides a system for school districts to apply a public health approach to the provision of student support services by improving the real-time use of information collected in schools, research centers, and other entities. The INSPIRE system is designed to support the early identification and monitoring of students potentially requiring more targeted interventions. It also allows for the monitoring implementation of interventions such as PATHS to PAX
