Periodic, high-profile incidents of school violence both in the United States and around the world have understandably resulted in public demand for increased school safety. This demand has, in turn, led to school safety policies and practices that have raced ahead of empirical research. This situation is now changing. In both the United States and across the world a continuing flow of government-funded research studies now make it possible for schools and communities to implement school safety programs that are founded on sound scientific research. This 41-chapter handbook is the first attempt to comprehensively profile (on a worldwide basis) the emerging field of school violence and safety research and practice. It covers the full range of school violence from harassment and bullying to serious physical assault. It also examines existing school safety programs and the research and theories that guide them. Examinations of current issues and projections of future research and practice are embedded within the discussions. In short, it helps map the boundaries of this rapidly growing, multidisciplinary field of study. Key features of this important new book include: *Balance of Breadth and Depth–Coverage includes 41 chapters that provide an in-depth profile of the following aspects of school violence and school safety: 1. foundations 2. assessment and measurement 3. prevention and intervention, and 4. implementation. *Evidence-based Practice–Avoiding a one-size-fits-all approach to prevention and intervention, the focus throughout is on the application of evidence-based practice to those factors most commonly associated with school violence and safety. *Implications for Practice–A critical component of each chapter is a summary table delineating the implications for practice of the foregoing research. The Handbook of School Violence and School Safety is an indispensable reference volume for scholars, college administration faculty and graduate students, in-service school administrators and safety officers, policymakers, and academic libraries serving these groups. It is also appropriate for graduate level courses wholly or partly devoted to the study of school violence and school safety.

This guidebook shows how schools can form partnerships with law-enforcement agencies and communities to develop a comprehensive safe-school plan. The planning guide is based on four principles: that safe schools are caring schools, are built through cooperative efforts of all stakeholders, communicate high standards, and stress prevention. This manual examines the issue of safety in schools and recommends strategies for adoption by safe-school teams or committees as part of a comprehensive safe-school plan. Chapter 1 discusses the challenge of balancing individuals' civil rights with the majority's right to safety. Chapter 2 describes a safe-school model organized under four broad components--the personal characteristics of the school and staff, the school's physical environment, the school's social environment, and the school's culture. The third chapter recommends a seven-step planning process to guide the planning committee in addressing the components of the safe-school model. Practical suggestions for achieving safety in each of the four components are offered in chapter 4. References contain publications, 9 videotapes, and 23 resource centers. A glossary and appendices containing technical information for developing a school safety plan are included. (LMI)

Ensuring Safe School Environments: Exploring Issues--Seeking Solutions presents research findings and information about school violence, with a focus on strategies for increasing school safety. Based on a special topical issue of Rural Special Education Quarterly, the original journal articles have been rewritten to address safe schools from the perspective of suburban and urban, as well as rural environments. Topics include the frequency of violence in these different settings; violence as it directly impacts school administrators; strategies for preventing and addressing violence at both the school and individual levels; and ways to work with the community both in and out of schools. Part I focuses on issues. In Part II, solutions that have been used to deal with youth violence are offered for readers to consider, including chapters on effective conflict management practices, behavioral support plans, school-community relations, the development of a caring school community as a way to decrease tendencies toward violence, and a model which demonstrates an in-practice, state-wide program designed to assist in the development of a community-focused school. Each chapter concludes with discussion questions and a case study to enhance understanding of and reflection on the issues surrounding school violence. The text is intended as supplementary material for any course preparing school administrators. Presenting both research and practice, the text can be a guide for practicing school administrators in their search for ways to insure the safety and well being of the students whom they serve, as well as a resource for individuals in other community-based human service agencies who deal with school violence.
