Indicator of the Month: Student Victimization at School
|
Description:
|
Violence in schools directly affects educators and students by reducing school effectiveness and inhibiting
student learning. Additionally, unsafe school environments expose students who may already be at risk for
school failure to physical and emotional harm. In recent years, educators and policymakers have voiced
growing concern about possible increases in the incidence of school-related criminal behavior. Studying
trends in victimization rates provides a picture of the safety of today’s schools.
