The Lustica School Clinical Evaluation Tool (L-SCET) is redefining how New York schools understand, support, and grow their school-based mental health professionals. Built by practitioners in schools, for schools, the L-SCET goes far beyond traditional evaluation; it creates a shared language, a coaching-aligned framework, and a real pathway to stronger student outcomes.
Why Every District Needs the L-SCET
Schools rely on mental health professionals more than ever, yet most evaluation tools don’t capture the heart of the work: relationship-building, crisis response, MTSS-aligned interventions, consultation, prevention, and trauma-informed practice. L-SCET fills that gap.
With the L-SCET, districts get:
✔ A clear, research-informed framework that reflects the actual responsibilities of school counselors, psychologists, & social workers,
✔ A strengths-based approach that supports growth rather than compliance.
✔ Consistency across roles, helping multidisciplinary teams work more effectively together.
✔ Alignment with NYSMHA’s Collective Care model, ensuring evaluations reinforce best practice.
✔ A built-in coaching connection, making professional development meaningful, ongoing, and tied directly to student needs.
The L-SCET is not just an evaluation, it’s a movement toward clarity, confidence, and excellence in school mental health.
Supervisors love it because it provides structure.
Collective Care Team members love it because it honors their work.
Districts love it because it leads to better systems, stronger retention, and healthier school climates.
