There will be no cost. The Missouri Center for Safe Schools has developed a school safety review checklist. We offer to review the safety of schools using the checklist and provide the inviting administrator a confidential copy of the findings. The checklist covers physical security, staff screening, organization, emergency planning, violence prevention, crisis intervention, Safe Schools Act compliance, and associated staff development. It takes most of a day to complete the survey of one large school.

It was this thought that prompted California to spend huge sums of money to bring student-teacher ratios down to 20 to 1. The results were disappointing. All but 27 of the studies showed no statistically significant results.
