Indicators of School Crime
and Safety, 2000
Presents data on
crime at school from the perspectives of students, teachers, principals,
and the general population from an array of sources--the National Crime
Victimization Survey (1992-98), the School Crime Supplement to the National
Crime Victimization Survey (1989, 1995, and 1999), the School Associated
Violent Death Study (1997-98), the Youth Risk Behavior Survey (1993, 1995,
and 1997), the Fast Response Survey System Principal/School Disciplinarian
Survey (1996-97), and the Schools and Staffing Survey (1993-94). A joint
effort by the Bureau of Justice Statistics and National Center for Education
Statistics, the report examines crime occurring in school as well as on
the way to and from school. Data for crime away from school are also presented
to place school crime in the context of crime in the larger society. The
report provides the most current detailed statistical information to inform
the Nation on the nature of crime in schools. 10/00 NCJ 184176
Additional information
on school crime and safety is available from the 2000 Annual Report on School Safety (Pdf file, 6.4M), a joint report from the U.S Department of Justice and the U.S. Department of Education.
