The students who need the most attention are not always the ones generating the most alerts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A student can accumulate weeks of lower-severity signals: a flagged search, a concerning document, a message that alone would never trigger an escalation. Taken together, they tell a different story. For school counselors and threat assessment teams managing hundreds of students across a district, seeing that story before it becomes a crisis is the hardest part of the job. The Student Risk Indicator Report in Lightspeed Alert\u2122<\/a> addresses this directly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What Is the Student Risk Indicator Report?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The Student Risk Indicator Report is a feature within Lightspeed Alert\u2122 that moves safety teams beyond reacting to individual incidents by surfacing student risk patterns over time. Rather than showing a list of recent alerts, it scores each student across 30 days of monitored activity, factors in what Lightspeed’s human safety reviewers concluded about each incident, and assigns a current risk level<\/strong> of Imminent, High, Elevated, or Low. That score updates continuously as new activity comes in and as review outcomes change.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How Does the Student Risk Indicator Report Calculate Student Risk?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Each student’s risk level is weighted by three factors: severity of flagged activity, recency of that activity, and what Lightspeed’s human safety reviewers actually concluded when they reviewed each incident.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
