Violence among youth in public schools is one of America’s most pressing concerns. Once thought to be something only inner-city schools faced, it has spread to suburban and rural schools. There are no easy solutions to the problem, but this book explores what administrators and other school officials can do to structure school safety programs to curb student violence. An introduction provides information and statistics about the causes of school violence. Chapter One considers government legislation and resulting initiatives to reduce youth violence and improve classroom discipline. Chapter Two covers strategies for building a school safety program, and offers recommended and tested approaches for creating safety initiatives. Chapter Three provides additional information about school-wide strategies and presents model programs that can be implemented at the elementary, middle, and high school levels. Chapter Four examines character-building educational programs and discusses training for teachers and parents. Chapter Five is a directory of organizations, alliances, centers, professional development groups, publications, and websites dealing with school safety.

School security is one of the most pressing public concerns today. Yet in most schools, there is little security expertise or detailed knowledge about how to implement and manage a security program. The Handbook for School Safety and Security rectifies this problem by providing the salient information school administrators and security professionals need to address the most important security issues schools face. Made up of contributions from leading experts in school security, The Handbook for School Safety and Security provides a wealth of practical information for securing any K-12 school. It discusses key approaches and best practices for school crime prevention, including such topics as crisis management and mass notification. It also covers the physical measure needed for protecting a school, including detailed discussions of access control, lighting, alarms, and locks. While there is no single fix for the myriad of security challenges facing today’s school security professionals, the best practices found in The Handbook for School Safety and Security will help increase the safety and security of any school. Brings together the collective experience of industry-leading subject matter specialists into one resource. Covers all the key areas needed for developing and implementing a school security program. Includes a list of 100 things to know when developing a school security program.

Schools are, in general, safe spaces for every student, teacher and other professional. However, some problems related to the maintenance of school building and installations, as well as other threats related to cases of vandalism and bullying, can occur during academic activity. Safety must be part of the regular process of management, establishing tasks and roles and promoting the development of prevention plans, with the objective of guaranteeing protection for all people who regularly attend schools. Success in safety management lies in knowing what takes place in a school, being conscious of the risks that can affect students, teachers and other professionals who study and work there. This book discusses the EDURISC self-assessment questionnaire used for the assessment of integral safety in schools; provides insight on school indoor quality; and examines integration of chemical safety education into the pre-school curriculum.

Schools under Surveillance gathers together some of the very best researchers studying surveillance and discipline in contemporary public schools. Surveillance is not simply about monitoring or tracking individuals and their dataùit is about the structuring of power relations through human, technical, or hybrid control mechanisms. Essays cover a broad range of topics including police and military recruiters on campus, testing and accountability regimes such as No Child Left Behind, and efforts by students and teachers to circumvent the most egregious forms of surveillance in public education. Each contributor is committed to the continued critique of the disparity and inequality in the use of surveillance to target and sort students along lines of race, class, and gender.

This guidebook shows how schools can form partnerships with law-enforcement agencies and communities to develop a comprehensive safe-school plan. The planning guide is based on four principles: that safe schools are caring schools, are built through cooperative efforts of all stakeholders, communicate high standards, and stress prevention. This manual examines the issue of safety in schools and recommends strategies for adoption by safe-school teams or committees as part of a comprehensive safe-school plan. Chapter 1 discusses the challenge of balancing individuals' civil rights with the majority's right to safety. Chapter 2 describes a safe-school model organized under four broad components--the personal characteristics of the school and staff, the school's physical environment, the school's social environment, and the school's culture. The third chapter recommends a seven-step planning process to guide the planning committee in addressing the components of the safe-school model. Practical suggestions for achieving safety in each of the four components are offered in chapter 4. References contain publications, 9 videotapes, and 23 resource centers. A glossary and appendices containing technical information for developing a school safety plan are included. (LMI)
