Every child has the right to an education in a safe and secure environment. Violence in our nation's schools threatens this right. Unfortunately, this social problem is increasing. No community is immune.
Violence threatens the educational process and puts everyone in danger.
We must focus our efforts on prevention. Parents, teachers, and administrators must work together to reduce the violence in our schools. I hope the following sites will help you learn more about school violence and what is being done to reduce it. This site offers links for teachers and administrators to workshops and publications. Educational Resource Information Center at UNNC-Greensboro Virtual Libraries offers multiple documents on school violence issues.
