REPORTING BRIEFLY ON A SURVEY OF FIFTEEN SCHOOL DISTRICTS (SOME OF WHICH HAD WITNESSED DECREASES IN VIOLENCE), THE AUTHORS PRESENT SOME POLICY ALTERNATIVES BASED ON THE OBSERVED SUCCESSFUL PRACTICES.
Abstract
THE RECOMMENDATIONS GENERALLY CALL FOR A FEDERALLY-FUNDED PROGRAM WHICH WOULD ESTABLISH NATIONAL CRITERIA FOR PROGRAMS WHILE AT THE SAME TIME WOULD ADDRESS EACH SCHOOL AND SCHOOL SYSTEM INDIVIDUALLY. THEY ALSO CALL FOR THE TRAINING OF SCHOOL SECURITY OFFICERS.
