Summary
"Is your child safe at school? Who makes the decisions about your child's safety and security when you send them off to school each day? What does a truly safe school look like? Does your school have an adequate security plan? How can we prevent the unthinkable?... In this comprehensive guidebook for parents and professionals, Wayne Black utilizes over forty-five years of security experience in both the private and public sectors to educate you on: who is responsible for your school's safety and security, how to talk to the school board and administration about security policy, the most effective physical safeguards for preventing an attack, how to detect and report observable concerning behavior, the role of security and law officers in schools, easy-to-follow pathways for you to push for positive change when and where it is needed plus simple, helpful checklists to quickly assess school safety."--Amazon.com.
