Make a difference in school safety and security with these practical, realistic strategies!

This timely resource for new, veteran, and aspiring school administrators offers cost-effective techniques for creating a safe environment for students, staff, and the community. The authors use their experience in education and law enforcement to show how administrators can combine the need for a secure campus with the desire to maintain an open, welcoming environment.

Succinct and user-friendly, this handbook offers practical, realistic methods for designing general and event-specific safety plans, forming safety committees, and creating security checklists and visitor screening procedures. Sections on staff training include methods for handling harassment and bullying as well as recommendations for:

  • Helping prevent or minimize a potential crisis
  • Facilitating a stronger, more informed response when needed
  • Aiding in school recovery and a return to normalcy

For easy reference, readers will find strategies organized by categories and concluding with a top ten list of security recommendations.
