Book excerpt: This book examines the phenomenon of school shootings to critically and objectively search for ways to minimize or stop these incidences. It examines the profiles and tactics of the shooters themselves, looks at suggestions for defending the schools and classrooms, and offers some compromise regulations requiring compromise by all to, in the short term, minimize the occurrences. But it also suggests that such simple answers are not even addressing the real root causes of the problem and to do that we have to look in the most uncomfortable of places... ourselves.

Download or read book Making Schools Safer written by Cecil Jenkins, Jr and published by Independently Published. This book was released on 2023-04-27 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the news, there have been many school shooting incidents reported and several reports state that in 2020, firearm-related injuries became the leading cause of death of individuals ages 19 and younger. The Columbine High School Shootings on April 20, 1999, brought the spotlight on school shootings for many and led many individuals to believe that schools will be made safer because of that incident. Then, it was reported that on December 14, 2012, twenty children between the ages of six and seven, and six adult staff members were shot and killed at Sandy Hook Elementary School in Newtown, Connecticut. After the Sandy Hook shooting, executive actions were signed by the President of the United States and proposals were made to Congress but deaths and serious injuries have continued at schools. In my opinion, we should have awareness and a plan to make schools safer, unlike what we did before September 11, 2001. On September 10, 2001, it seems that airport security did not have the proper personnel, policy, or protective devices in place. In my opinion, regarding school safety, many schools do not have the proper personnel, proper policies, or protective devices in place either. On September 11, 2001, there were worldwide shock, outrage, and condolences after the deadliest terrorist attack ever occurred in the United States, which was apparently missed in the risk assessments report. The government may have had a plan for a terrorist attack but not the awareness of the possibility of this type of attack. Law enforcement agencies and politicians probably have ideas to make schools safer, but their suggestions seem incomplete. Based on my four different decades of practical school safety and security experience, experience working with government and private groups, my education, and training, school safety is not a single-issue problem and therefore requires more than a single-issue solution. This will be explored in this publication.
Download or read book Safe at School written by Carol Silverman Saunders and published by St. Martin's Griffin. This book was released on 1999-08-30 with total page 263 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We want to believe our schools are safe, but how safe are they? Especially in light of the recent, tragic shootings in towns like Springfield, OR, Conyers, GA and Littleton, CO, parents are running scared. Each year in schools across the United States, more than 3 million crimes are committed, over 9,000 fires break out, and hundreds of thousands of students are injured. Administrators are overwhelmed, underfunded, and sometimes unresponsive. It's time to revisit what we can do to combat a rash of violence, and make schools safer in general - from the bus to the playground, the lunchroom to the science lab. Safe at School gives you the knowledge and skills you need to take action, be heard and get results. It covers every school safety problem you can think of - guns, drugs, supervision, disaster preparation, sexual harassment, asbestos in the air, lead in the water, bullies, class trips, school maintenance, and many more. Step-by-step actions plans explain how to identify safety problems at your child's school, how to form a parent safety group (there's strength in numbers), and how to hold schools accountable for your child's safety. Safe at School is the best kind of bedside reading - the kind that makes you sleep more soundly at night knowing you're taking steps to ensure the safety of your child.
