Welcome to the SCIP Homepage!
Mission Statement
We, the SCIP Team of Scott Middle School, believe all students need a safe, drug free, educational environment. Our goal as a team is to guide students' education and to identify, intervene, and educate students who have difficulties, that may or may not be related to alcohol and other illegal drug use, behavioral and other mental health issues. We will inform parents and connect them to resources that will provide support and assistance for them and their student.
For questions or concerns, please contact one of the Scott Middle School SCIP Team Members.

What is the purpose of SCIP?
*To identify students exhibiting high risk behaviors which interfere with their ability to learn.
*To provide alternative approaches in helping students deal with these problems.
*To provide a support system for students and parents to address problem areas both within and outside the school setting
How does SCIP assist students?
The program has four components, each of which assists students.
- Identification of students who exhibit problematic behavior.
- Intervention with the student, parents, and a school representative from the SCIP team to describe problem behavior and to seek solutions and explore options which will increase the student's chance of being successful in school.
- Referral to a community agency tailored to youth and families.
- Student Support to assist students in the school environment. The goal of individual and group support is to aid the recovery process of the student
How are students referred to SCIP?
Students are referred to SCIP by teachers, students, administrators, friends, parents or by self. Once a referral is made, teachers are asked to observe the student's behavior in class and forward information to the SCIP team. The team reviews the information and decides what action should be taken.
