Creating Safe Schools for All Students draws on the latest research, law, and expert judgment to offer educators a comprehensive program for designing safe schools. This book addresses several theoretical perspectives through which readers can come to understand school safety. It also provides a set of standards that educators can use to evaluate their schools and then develop practical and systematic plans for ensuring orderly and caring learning environments. Attention is given to the distinction between preventing violence and promoting safety. For educators or educational administrators.

The school's responsibility is to provide an effective learning environment for students to achieve academic success. The California Safe Schools Assessment (CSSA) collects data on individual incidents of school crime from all California public schools and county-operated education programs. The California Department of Education strongly discourages comparisons between or among school districts and county offices of education (COE's). This handbook presents data on school incidents reported during 1995-96 from the four major crime categories--property crimes, crimes against persons, drug and alcohol offenses, and other. Some of the highlights include the following: (1) Property crimes were the most common crimes affecting California schools, representing 34 percent of all crimes reported and an incident rate of 4.9 per 1,000 students; (2) vandalism was the most commonly reported incident in the property-crimes category with an incident rate of 1.7 per 1,000 students; (3) crimes against persons represented 28 percent of all reported crimes with an incident rate of 4.1 per 1,000 students; (4) drug and alcohol offenses represented 26 percent of all reported crimes with an incident rate of 3.8 per 1,000 students; (5) of the reported crimes against persons, 89 percent of the incidents involved no weapon; and (6) students were most often identified as the victims in the crimes-against-persons category (89 percent). Five recommendations are included. Two tables and five figures are included. Appendices contain copies of the school-crime reporting form and reference guide to crime definitions; information on grant programs for 1996-97 through the California Department of Education Safe Schools and Violence Prevention Office; and data for incident frequencies and crime rates by COE and by county.

We expect schools to be a safe haven, but after more than a decade of targeted school violence prevention laws and safety plans, students are still marginalized and bullied to the point of despondence, retaliation, and even suicide. This thoughtful exploration of what makes a school a safe place is based on the understanding that violence is a continuum of acts and attitudes subtle to overt that have a negative effect on how students feel and learn. A school s climate how it feels to be a member of the learning community depends on how each student is treated. We are challenged to recognize the often overlooked, yet pervasive, forms of emotional and physical violence that students face every day. After conducting an honest assessment of our own school s climate, we learn how to nurture supportive relationships between students and adults and embed pro-social skills and respect for diversity in everything we do.When done, we are equipped with the understandings, tools, and commitment necessary to create a safe, positive school climate that is systemic and lasting."

This workbook presents a seven-step planning process for safe and effective schools. Though specifically directed to schools in California, most of the components of the plan will pertain to schools everywhere. The workbook contains requirements of the California Education Code; many work sheets, sample forms, summary sheets, checklists, rubrics, matrices, and definitions; and an action plan for each of the seven steps. The seven steps in the planning process are as follows: (1) Identify your safe-school planning committee members; (2) create a vision of your school as a place where students are safe to learn, and base that vision on youth development; (3) gather and analyze data; (4) identify strengths and areas of desired change, and set major annual goals for each of the two safe-school components; (5) select and implement strategies; (6) communicate the safety plan to the public, hold public meetings for input, and keep the updated plan available for public inspection; and (7) evaluate your progress, revise the plan annually, and include the plan in your school accountability report card.
