Safe Schools Index NYSUT Home Safe Schools A NYSUT Online Special FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: April 26, 1999 Statement by NYSUT Executive Vice President Alan Lubin on School Violence Prevention Act CONTACT: Linda Rosenblatt, Director, Or Denise Clapham and Carl Korn, Media Relations/ Communications, (518) 213-6000, Ext. 6313 "T he governor's school violence prevention package is important and far-reaching. Our schoolchildren - and their parents, teachers and communities - need assurance that New York is doing everything possible to not only reduce the potential for violence, but to improve the learning climate by making all classrooms safer and more orderly places for teaching and learning. NYSUT just last week released a poll that showed student behavior in New York has worsened over the past five years. Profanity, disrespect and defiance for teachers has created, in too many school districts, a civility crisis that threatens to undermine the work everyone is doing to help students reach tougher Regents standards. And we need look no farther than Littleton to realize much more must be done to reduce the chances the carnage of Columbine High School will happen here. The Assembly has passed legislation to address school safety and discipline which calls for the creation and funding of alternative placements. The Senate has approved legislation that supports giving teachers the authority to remove chronically disruptive students from the classroom. It is time now for both houses to resolve their differences, taking the best pieces of each and crafting an effective package of reforms. We call on the governor, Speaker Silver and Majority Leader Bruno to immediately appoint a conference committee to begin working on this proposal. School violence- and behavior that disrupts the learning environment - must both be dealt with this year.

Klamath County District Attorney's Office Edwin I. Caleb, District Attorney School Violence and Character Education The Klamath County District Attorney’s office has made the prevention of school violence and substance abuse one of its highest priority missions. It has cultivated and maintains a close partnership with law enforcement and the school districts in an effort to keep our schools safe. To that end, these officials gather for quarterly School Violence Prevention Meetings Additionally, each Deputy District Attorney is assigned to a local school to provide support and information for that site regarding juvenile justice issues. See District Attorney School Assignments In order to further expand this focus on helping to keep our children safe, the DA’s office called for help from the community. Soon thereafter, the Citizens For Safe Schools committee was born. These parents, educators, and others have studied the issues of school violence and reducing anti-social behavior in young people. They agree that the most proactive method for reducing violence and substance abuse is to build kids from the inside out: empower them to be respectful and responsible. Thus, the group decided to focused on promoting character education in our schools and community. Under the District Attorney’s leadership, the citizen group has launched two major community-wide initiatives: the annual

Understanding School Violence Home Search Contact Us ... What are the assumptions of school violence prevention? What are the alternatives to suspension and expulsion in promoting school safety and reducing student disruption? Despite widespread implementation in response to fears about school violence, there is little data that punitive zero tolerance policies have had a significant effect on improving school safety or student behavior. To identify more effective alternatives, nationally recognized researchers in the field of school violence have begun to look at what works and what doesn't in deterring school violence. Consistently, programs that effectively cut violence are proactive rather than reactive; involve families, students and the community; and include multiple components that can effectively address the complexity of school disruption and violence . Indeed, preventive programs, such as bullying prevention, peer mediation, or anger management, have far more data available to support their effectiveness than do technology-based fixes such as metal detectors or video surveillance cameras Comprehensive prevention can be highly effective in a surprisingly short period of time. In one inner-city school with rates of dropout approaching 70%-80% among minority youth, consultants worked with teachers, helping them increase their rates of praise and reframe classroom rules to be more positive. In one year, school suspensions dropped by 35%, and over the course of the three-year project, school dropout decreased by almost 40%

Mosaic Home EDC Home School Violence Prevention Aggressors, Victims, and Bystanders Marcus tells his friends he wants to "outdo Columbine" and begins to collect magazine articles about terrorism. He starts to dress in black and talks about building a bomb. On her way to school Anna sees two girls taunting one another, surrounded by a dozen other students. She notices that one of the girls begins to push the other girl and then pull her hair. As school officials around the country strive to become more savvy about handling violence, they are zeroing in on the critical role of "bystanders": the confidantes of violent youth or those who are present when violence occurs. In most cases of school violence, peers knew beforehand about a planned attack, notes Ron Slaby, a senior scientist in EDC's Health and Human Development Programs . In many cases of averted school violence, he adds, bystanders saw a red flag and took action that effectively prevented a tragedy. "Traditionally," says Slaby, "school interventions were focused exclusively on the aggressor. We used to wag our fingers at them, saying 'don't do that.'" Slaby developed the acclaimed

Home I Contact I Site Map CSPV Overview Violence in America has reached epidemic proportions. Today, all Americans are touched directly or indirectly by violent acts. In response, the Center for the Study and Prevention of Violence (CSPV) was founded in 1992 with a grant from the Carnegie Corporation of New York to provide informed assistance to groups committed to understanding and preventing violence, particularly adolescent violence. Since that time, our mission has expanded to encompass violence across the life course. In an effort to establish more complete and valuable information to impact violence-related policies, programs, and practices, CSPV works from a multi-disciplinary platform on the subject of violence and facilitates the building of bridges between the research community and the practitioners and policy makers. CSPV has a threefold mission. First, the Information House serves to collect research literature and resources on the causes and prevention of violence and provides direct information services to the public by offering topical searches on customized databases.

Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration Center for Mental Health Services Research shows that students feel increasingly unsafe during school, or traveling to and from school. A 1996 Children's Institute International Poll of American Adolescents revealed that 47 percent of all teens believed their schools were becoming more violent, 10 percent feared being shot or hurt by classmates carrying weapons to schools, and more than 20 percent were afraid to go to restrooms because these unsupervised areas were frequent sites of student victimization (National Center for Educational Statistics, 1998). In response to this alarming reality, the Federal government has allocated nearly $400 million to 97 communities to make schools safer, to foster children's healthy development and to prevent aggressive and violent behavior and drug and alcohol use among the nation's youth. The portion of Congressional allocation for CMHS-funded programs is targeted to improve mental health services for children with emotional and behavioral disorders who are at risk of violent behavior, and to focus on developing the integrated continuum of prevention, early intervention, and treatment. The CMHS initiative on school violence focuses on the collective involvement of families, communities, and schools to build resiliency to disruptive behavior disorders (for example, oppositional defiant disorder, conduct disorder, and attention deficit hyperactivity disorder). It is typically these children who are at risk of violence as perpetrators and victims. Untreated conduct disorders can develop into costly adult mental health and societal problems such as delinquency, substance use, and antisocial personality disorder.
