Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration Center for Mental Health Services Research shows that students feel increasingly unsafe during school, or traveling to and from school. A 1996 Children's Institute International Poll of American Adolescents revealed that 47 percent of all teens believed their schools were becoming more violent, 10 percent feared being shot or hurt by classmates carrying weapons to schools, and more than 20 percent were afraid to go to restrooms because these unsupervised areas were frequent sites of student victimization (National Center for Educational Statistics, 1998). In response to this alarming reality, the Federal government has allocated nearly $400 million to 97 communities to make schools safer, to foster children's healthy development and to prevent aggressive and violent behavior and drug and alcohol use among the nation's youth. The portion of Congressional allocation for CMHS-funded programs is targeted to improve mental health services for children with emotional and behavioral disorders who are at risk of violent behavior, and to focus on developing the integrated continuum of prevention, early intervention, and treatment. The CMHS initiative on school violence focuses on the collective involvement of families, communities, and schools to build resiliency to disruptive behavior disorders (for example, oppositional defiant disorder, conduct disorder, and attention deficit hyperactivity disorder). It is typically these children who are at risk of violence as perpetrators and victims. Untreated conduct disorders can develop into costly adult mental health and societal problems such as delinquency, substance use, and antisocial personality disorder.

Clearinghouse on Educational Management Previous (Digest 093) Spanish Version Next (Digest 095) ERIC Digest 94 - March 1995 School Violence Prevention By Dean Walker Eighty-nine percent of respondents in 700 cities and towns surveyed by the National League of Cities in 1994 said that school violence is a problem in their community (Randy Arndt 1994). Researchers have identified several major causes for the increase in violent behavior, causes so entangled that attempting to address one while ignoring another is to risk failure altogether. Poverty, racism, unemployment, substance abuse, easy access to weapons, inadequate or abusive parenting practices, and frequent exposure to violence through the media are all culpable (National Association for the Education of Young Children 1993). Tactics to deal with the burgeoning violence of youth have been mostly one-dimensional, relying on removal of the offender by suspension or placement outside of the mainstream classroom. This can protect other students; however, it has proven ineffective in preventing children from developing criminal careers. Educators and psychologists are eyeing the prevention of violent behavior as both a more humane and more cost-effective response to this multidimensional problem (Hill Walker 1994).

Threat Assessment Intervention Strategies Emergency Planning Response Protocols Prevent Mitigate Respond Recover Is your school prepared to respond to a terrorist attack? Do you have a sound emergency plan in effect with contingencies for terrorism? School Protective Services (SPS) can assist you with emergency plan development and comprehensive terrorist response contingency planning. SPS has extensive experience in providing on-site technical assistance in emergency plan development, contingency planning, conducting security assessments, and providing training in school emergency response strategies on a national basis. Planning a response to a terrorist attack should not take place in a vacuum. The key to an effective program to combat the threat of terrorism in your school starts with a sound, overall school emergency plan. The plan needs to anticipate all dangers to the school, of which terrorism is one such danger. A special plan for terrorism will only be effective if all other emergency response procedures are in place. For example, when a lock down is ordered in school because of a terrorist act or some other event like sniper shootings or a tornado, the principles are still the same. Chain of command, incident command system, communications systems, notification and coordination with police, fire, and EMS are all necessary planning elements. Therefore, having a basic emergency plan with contingencies to respond to certain events such as a terrorist attack, natural disaster, chemical spill, school shooter incident, etc. need to be developed and in place.

FOR MORE INFORMATION ABOUT ERIC, CONTACT ACCESS ERIC 1-800-LET-ERIC Creating a school environment that is free of violence and drugs has become a public priority. Over time, the approach taken by schools to prevent violence evolved from quick fix interventions to social control strategies to sophisticated, multi-faceted,and long-term programs. The evolution occurred partly because of necessity: the historical approaches have not worked very well; an increase in student diversity, coupled with overcrowding, is exacerbating tension in schools; and school violence is escalating. There are now a great many different types of violence prevention programs. Some focus on working with individual children identified by teachers or peers as aggressive or at risk for school failure. Others combine a focus on individual and family risk by integrating school-based programs and work with parents and families, peers, or community members. Still other programs integrate an individual risk focus with attempts to change the school environment. Most strive both to increase student social competence and to reduce aggressive behavior.

Policy Study No. 234, January 1998 School Violence Prevention: Strategies to Keep Schools Safe (Unabridged) by Alexander Volokh with Lisa Snell Part 1 Introduction "Have you had a rebellion lately, eh, eh?" -George III (1760-1820) to Eton public school boys School violence is a serious problem, especially in public schools. Improving the quality of American education is difficult without also addressing school violence, since regardless of how good the teachers or curriculum are, violence makes it difficult for students to learn. School violence wears many faces. It includes gang activity, locker thefts, bullying and intimidation, gun use, assault—just about anything that produces a victim. Violence is perpetrated against students, teachers, and staff, and ranges from intentional vendettas to accidental killings of bystanders. Often, discussions of school violence are lumped together with discussions of school discipline generally, as both involve questions of how to maintain order in a school. We divide school violence-prevention methods into three classes—measures related to school management (that is, related to discipline and punishment), measures related to environmental modification (for instance, video cameras, security guards, and uniforms), and educational and curriculum-based measures (for instance, conflict-resolution and gang-prevention programs). All methods have their advantages and disadvantages.
