Publication of this center.link marks the end of newsletters of this type. In the future, center.link will offer specific topics of interest. First up will be a Spring issue which will focus on student involvement, and close on its heels will be an issue about parent involvement. Other issues during the year 2000 will include one highlighting information on School Resource Officers and one which will provide important information to school administrators. The Center intends to enhance the web site as a source for center.link and other Center publications.
Efforts are already underway to make the web site more user friendly and also more student friendly.
Enhanced links to other school violence prevention sites are in the works. Overall, the changes we have in mind are intended to enable us to better meet your needs. We will continue to put into practice our philosophy of service and support and will work hard to be responsive to the needs you have in the arena of school violence prevention. We hope that the changes will enhance the impact we are having on school safety efforts and will move us closer to making our vision for safe schools a reality. That vision, of course, is that every student attend a school that is safe and secure, one that is free of fear and conducive to learning.
