School Safety

The day after the deadly shooting at the Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School the rallying cry heard across the country was “no-more school shootings!” It was clearly evident that school shootings are increasing and reactive measures are not going to change this. Images from Parkland, Sandy Hook, and Columbine made it ever so clear that whereas the atrocities caught our attention, schools are still soft targets. There are no manuals from the United States Department of Education to turn to for guidance to secure schools. No guidance on how to train administration and staff, as they truly are the first responders in such an event. Rather than wait for the heads of the federal and state education departments to step up and take-action, the time has come for all school leaders and administrators to take the step to protect their school communities. This book will help school leaders and administrators proactively take action to protect their school communities and yet still maintain a warm and nurturing learning environment.
Susan T. Vickers served as a social studies teacher for fifteen years, twelve years as a building administrator, and currently serves as a school superintendent in the Catskill region of New York State. She truly believes in not putting anything off to tomorrow that can be accomplished today. Kevin L. Smith, MD, Board Certified, General and Forensic Psychiatry
