Produktbeschreibung
Research indicates that virtually every school will
experience a crisis event of some sort in the near
future. The real question is whether a school will be
adequately prepared for this certainty. Schools have
long operated on the naive assumption of safety
despite the inevitability of crisis events. As a
result, schools are not adequately prepared for the
medical, emotional, legal, and financial implications
of a failed crisis response. This book examines the
factors and priorities that impact the level of
preparedness in a school district and makes practical
recommendations for improved crisis planning.
Beginning with a history of school violence, the work
explores the results of the author's study of
the safety and crisis planning practices of school
districts. The highly effective method of
comprehensive crisis planning is discussed in depth,
providing administrators, board members,teachers,
and researchers with a working
knowledge and practical understanding of this vital
topic. While financial issues and student achievement
have often consumed practitioners' time and
attention, it is the safety of students that should
be any school's top priority.
