Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report provides detailed statistical information on crime in schools. It is a companion document to the "Annual Report on School Safety: 1999," which offers an overview of the nature and scope of school crime. This report is organized as a series of indicators, with each indicator presenting data on a different aspect of school crime and safety. The report contains 4 sections: Nonfatal Student Victimization--Student Reports; Violence and Crime at School--Public School Principal/Disciplinarian Reports; Nonfatal Teacher Victimization at School--Teacher Reports; and School Environment. The report shows that even though the actual rate of victimization has declined or remained constant over recent years, students feel less safe at school now than just a few years ago. Students, ages 12 through 19, who reported avoiding one or more places at school for their own safety increased between 1989 and 1995. The presence of street gangs on school property continued to concern students, reflected by the fact that the percentage of students who reported seeing street gangs at their school increased from 1989 to 1995. Alcohol and marijuana use on school property remained constant, although marijuana use anywhere by students in grades 9 through 12 increased. Three appendices list school safety practices and policies, technical notes, and other information. (RJM)

Book excerpt: This report provides estimates of student victimization as defined by the 2005 School Crime Supplement (SCS) to the 2005 National Crime Victimization Survey (NCVS). the nation's primary source of information on crime victimization and the victims of crime in the United States. SCS is a supplement to NCVS that was created to collect information about school-related victimization on a national level, and was conducted in 1989, 1995, 1999, 2001, 2003, and 2005. The report presents five sections of results. The first two sections discuss the prevalence and type of student victimization at school and selected characteristics of victims, including their demographic characteristics and school type. The third section explores victim and nonvictim reports of conditions of an unfavorable school climate, such as the presence of gangs and weapons and the availability of drugs. The fourth section examines victimization and student reports of security measures taken at school to secure school buildings and the use of personnel and enforcement of administrative procedures at school to ensure student safety. The fifth section examines fear and avoidance behaviors of victims and nonvictims, such as skipping class or avoiding specific places at school. SCS is cross-sectional and nonexperimental. Further, certain characteristics discussed in this report may be related to one another, but this analysis does not control for such possible relationships. Therefore, no causal inferences should be made between school or student characteristics and victimization when reading these results. Selected major findings from the 2005 NCVS and SCS include: (1) Four percent of students ages 12 through 18 reported that they were victims of any crime at school, and one percent of students reported being victims of violent crime at school; (3) The percentage of males who reported being victims of a violent crime at school was higher than the percentage of females; (4) Of the students who reported they were victims of a violent crime at school, the percentage of 6th-grade and 7th-grade students was higher than the percentage of 10th-grade students; (5) Of those students who reported being victims of violent crime, a higher percentage mostly C's than students who reported receiving mostly A's or B's; (6) Three percent of students who attended public schools reported being victims of theft, compared to 1 percent of students who attended private schools; (7) Forty-one percent of student victims of any crime reported the presence of gangs at school compared to 23 percent of students who were not victims; (9) Fifty percent of student victims of theft and 51 percent of student victims of violent crime said drugs were available at their schools, compared to 34 percent of students who were not victims; (8) A higher percentage of students who reported being victims of theft reported that their schools used security guards or assigned police officers compared to nonvictims of any crime; (9) The percentage of student victims of theft and violent crimes who reported being afraid of attack or harm at school was higher than nonvictims of any crime; and (10) A higher percentage of students reporting violent crime reported avoiding specific places at school and avoiding extracurricular activities because of fear of attack or harm than nonvictims of any crime. The U.S. public continues to be concerned about crime in school and the safety of students, as well as how victimization at school may be an impediment to student success. Crime in schools can have negative implications not only for those directly involved in the incident but also for other students, faculty, and staff, and create an environment that is unfavorable for successful educational attainment. Findings presented in this report aid in identifying the scope of victimization at school, environmental conditions that may be associated with it, and its ramifications. These findings can help educators, policymakers, administrators, and parents understand the extent of student victimization in order to develop policies that better address issues of school crime and violence. Five appendixes are included: (1) Technical Notes; (2) Estimate Tables; (3) Standard Error tables; (4) 2005 School Crime Supplement (SCS) to the National Crime Victimization Survey (NCVS) Instrument; and (5) Selected Items from the National Crime Victimization Survey Crime Incident Report (NCVS-2). (Contains 13 footnotes, 5 figures and 14 tables.).

Book excerpt: This report provides estimates of student criminal victimization as defined by the 2009 School Crime Supplement (SCS) to the 2009 National Crime Victimization Survey (NCVS). The NCVS is the nation's primary source of information on criminal victimization and the victims of crime in the United States. The SCS is a supplement to the NCVS that was created to collect national-level information about students ages 12 through 18 and school characteristics related to school crime. The first three administrations of the SCS were conducted in 1989, 1995, and 1999; since 1999, it has been conducted biennially. The survey is designed to assist policymakers, as well as researchers and practitioners at the federal, state, and local levels, in making informed decisions concerning crime in schools. Major findings from the 2009 NCVS and SCS include the following: (1) In school year 2008-09, about 3.9 percent of students ages 12 through 18 were the victims of any crime at school (table 1). About 2.8 percent reported being victims of theft, 1.4 percent reported a violent victimization, and 0.3 percent reported a serious violent victimization; (2) A larger percentage of males were victims of any crime at school (4.6 percent) than were females (3.2 percent) (table 2); (3) A higher percentage of students in grade 9 reported theft victimization (4.9 percent) than did students in grades 7 or 8 (2.1 percent and 2.0 percent, respectively) (table 2). In addition, higher percentages of students in grades 9, 10, and 11 reported theft victimization (4.9 percent, 3.5 percent, and 3.3 percent, respectively) than did students in grades 6 or 12 (1.3 percent and 1.5 percent, respectively); (4) Some 39.8 percent of student victims of any crime reported the presence of gangs at school, compared to 19.6 percent of student nonvictims (figure 1 and table 3); (5) About 33.9 percent of students who reported violent crime victimization reported having been in a physical fight at school, compared to 5.3 percent of students who were not victims of any crime (figure 1 and table 3); (6) About 53.2 percent of student victims of theft and 54.2 percent of student victims of violent crime said drugs were available at their school, compared to 29.9 percent of students who were not victims of any crime (figure 1 and table 3); (7) Higher percentages of students who reported any criminal victimization at school reported they were also the targets of traditional (63.5 percent) and electronic (19.8 percent) bullying than were student nonvictims (26.6 percent and 5.5 percent, respectively) (figure 2 and table 4); (8) Higher percentages of student victims of any crime and theft reported security cameras at their school than did student nonvictims (78.5 percent and 80.9 percent vs. 69.7 percent, respectively) (figure 3 and table 5); (9) When asked about safety measures at their school, a higher percentage of students who were victims of theft reported that their schools used security guards or assigned police officers than did student nonvictims of any crime (81.9 percent vs. 67.7 percent) (figure 4 and table 6); and (10) The percentage of student victims of violent crimes who reported being afraid of attack or harm at school (22.7 percent) was higher than that of student nonvictims of any crime (3.9 percent) (figure 5 and table 7). Appended are: (1) Technical Notes; (2) Standard Error Tables; (3) Selected Items From the 2009 National Crime Victimization Survey Basic Screen Questionnaire (NCVS-1); (4) Selected Items From the 2009 National Crime Victimization Survey Crime Incident Report (NCVS-2); and (5) 2009 School Crime Supplement to the National Crime Victimization Survey Instrument.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report presents data on crime at school from the perspectives of students, teachers, principals, and the general population. A joint effort by the Bureau of Justice Statistics and National Center for Education Statistics, the report examines crime occurring in school as well as on the way to and from school. It provides the most current detailed statistical information to inform the Nation on the nature of crime in schools. Information contained in this report was gathered from an array of sources including: National Crime Victimization Survey (1992-2000); School Crime Supplement to the National Crime Victimization Survey (1995, 1999, and 2001); Youth Risk Behavior Survey (1993, 1995, 1997, 1999, and 2001); Fast Response Survey System: Principal/School Disciplinarian Survey on School Violence (1997); and School and Staffing Survey (1999-2000). Highlights include the following: crime in schools continues to decline. Violent victimization rates for students varied from a high of 59 violent victimizations per 1,000 students in 1993 to a low of 26 per 1,000 students in 2000. The percentage of students who said they were victims of crime at school, both violent and property crimes, decreased from 10 percent of all students in 1995 to 6 percent in 2001. In 1993, 1995, 1997, 1999, and 2001, between 7 and 9 percent of students reported being threatened or injured in the previous 12 months with a weapon such as a gun, knife, or club on school property.

This book was released on 2016 with total page 49 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report outlines the development, methodology, and results of the split-half administration of the 2015 School Crime Supplement (SCS) to the National Crime Victimization Survey (NCVS). The National Crime Victimization Survey (NCVS) is sponsored by the U.S. Department of Justice, Bureau of Justice Statistics (BJS). The National Center for Education Statistics (NCES) collaborated with BJS to design the SCS as a supplement to the NCVS. Census conducted the SCS along with the NCVS in 1989, 1995, 1999, and every two years from 1999 to the present. The survey is administered to youth ages 12-18 in participating NCVS households who were enrolled in any of the grades 6-12 and attended public or private school for at least part of the school year concurrent with the survey year. The 2015 SCS was administered between January and June of 2015. The results of these analyses indicated that the bullying estimates derived from the new 2015 SCS bullying items were not similar to estimates derived from the historic bullying items alone. However, it also was determined that the two new bullying estimates (version 1 + RP, and version 2) were not similar to each other, although both were designed to make explicit to students the same elements--repetition and power imbalance--of the uniform bullying definition. Further analysis is planned to help determine what constructs are being measured by the two new versions of the bullying questions. For the 2015 SCS, NCES recommends use of only the data collected from the historic questions presented in version 1 to derive national estimates of reported bullying victimization in school among 12 to 18 year olds. This will allow for continuity with previous NCES data and prevent the dissemination of conflicting estimates of bullying victimization from the 2015 data. The following are appended: (1) School Crime Supplement to the National Crime Victimization Survey Details of Survey Question Changes From 2013 to 2015; and (2) 2015 School Crime Supplement Questionnaire.

Book excerpt: Our nations schools should be safe havens for teaching and learning, free of crime and violence. Any instance of crime or violence at school not only affects the individuals involved, but also may disrupt the educational process and affect bystanders, the school itself, and the surrounding community (Brookmeyer, Fanti, and Henrich 2006; Goldstein, Young, and Boyd 2008). Establishing reliable indicators of the current state of school crime and safety across the nation and regularly updating and monitoring these indicators are important in ensuring the safety of our nations students. This is the aim of Indicators of School Crime and Safety. The report included in this book is the seventeenth in a series of annual publications produced jointly by the National Center for Education Statistics (NCES), Institute of Education Sciences (IES), in the U.S. Department of Education, and the Bureau of Justice Statistics (BJS) in the U.S. Department of Justice. This report presents the most recent data available on school crime and student safety. The indicators in this report are based on information drawn from a variety of data sources, including national surveys of students, teachers, principals, and postsecondary institutions. Sources include results from the School-Associated Violent Deaths Study, sponsored by the U.S. Department of Education, the Department of Justice, and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC); the National Crime Victimization Survey and School Crime Supplement to that survey, sponsored by BJS and NCES, respectively; the Youth Risk Behavior Survey, sponsored by the CDC; the Schools and Staffing Survey and School Survey on Crime and Safety, both sponsored by NCES; the Supplementary Homicide Reports, sponsored by the Federal Bureau of Investigation; EDFacts, sponsored by NCES; and the Campus Safety and Security Survey, sponsored by the U.S. Department of Education. The most recent data collection for each indicator varied by survey, from 2009 to 2013. Each data source has an independent sample design, data collection method, and questionnaire design, or is the result of a universe data collection. All comparisons described in this report are statistically significant at the .05 level. Additional information about methodology and the datasets analyzed in this report may be found in appendix A. The report covers topics such as victimization, teacher injury, bullying and cyber-bullying, school conditions, fights, weapons, availability and student use of drugs and alcohol, student perceptions of personal safety at school, and criminal incidents at postsecondary institutions. Indicators of crime and safety are compared across different population subgroups and over time. Data on crimes that occur away from school are offered as a point of comparison where available.
