Extractions: ISSUE: Crime, violence, and disorder in schools have become major national issues, as reported in various national surveys of school order and safety . These problems not only endanger students and teachers, but they also prevent teachers from concentrating on teaching and students from concentrating on learning. OVERVIEW: More than ever before, today's schools are serving children from dysfunctional homes, children living in poverty, children of teenage parents, and special education students. Unfortunately, resources to adequately serve the total range of needs presented by these students are becoming increasingly limited. Adequate parental supervision and control of these students has weakened, and many students have diminished respect for all forms of authority, including the authority of school personnel. As a result, schools are confronted with problems of students possessing weapons, students involved with gang recruitment and rivalry, and students engaged in drug trafficking, both as sellers and buyers. Such problems lead to violent acts in and around schools. In order to create a safe environment that is conducive to learning, schools must implement safety plans and comprehensive prevention programs that address the root causes of violence This changing educational climate has created an imperative need for schools to identify tools, strategies, and model programs that enhance the safety and success of all children and the professionals who serve them. Because young people are legally required to attend school, school personnel have a corresponding duty to provide children with a safe, secure, and peaceful environment in which learning can occur. Achieving this end requires that every school district and each individual school develop a school safety plan. Development of such plans is not limited to the school alone but must necessarily involve the entire community.

The Nebraska Department of Education and the Nebraska Art Teachers Association with support from the Getty Education Institute established Prairie Visions in 1986. Additional funding has come from the Nebraska Arts Council, Nebraska Humanities Council and the Nebraska Art Association. Prairie Visions is also part of the Transforming Education Through the Arts Challenge (TETAC) program with funding from the Annenberg Foundation and Getty Education Institute. Prairie Visions' target group is Nebraska educators, students and communities. The Consortium of 97 school districts stretches from Gering to Bellevue and from Santee to Holdredge. The Summer Institute is the main vehicle for professional development and curriculum design in arts education. Since its first session in 1988, Prairie Visions has served more than 1,300 art specialists, educators and representatives of arts agencies and educational organizations, including 270 of Nebraska's arts specialists. Graduates come from districts that embrace half of Nebraska's public school population. The program started from a need for a statewide staff development program for teachers in the arts. The goal was to establish the visual arts as a regular academic discipline alongside core subjects such as math, language arts, science and history. Subsequently, the program has expanded recently to include the performing arts.
