Product Description
This up-to-date electronic book on CD-ROM presents a collection of important federal documents, guides, and publications about school safety and classroom violence, including the FBI's School Shooter Threat Assessment Report from the Critical Incident Response Group (CIRG) of the National Center for the Analysis of Violent Crime (NCAVC) at the FBI Academy in Quantico, Virginia. There is material from the U.S. Department of Education and its Office of Safe and Drug-Free Schools (OSDFS), the Secret Service and its Safe School Initiative, the October 2006 White House Conference on School Safety, bomb threat plans and response, and the No Child Left Behind program. The U.S. Secret Service completed the Safe School Initiative, a study of school shootings and other school-based attacks that was conducted in collaboration with the U.S. Department of Education. The study examined school shootings in the United States as far back as 1974, through the end of the school year in 2000, analyzing a total of 37 incidents involving 41 student attackers. The study involved extensive review of police records, school records, court documents, and other source materials, and included interviews with 10 school shooters. The focus of the study was on developing information about the school shooters's pre-attack behaviors and communications. The goal was to identify information about a school shooting that may be identifiable or noticeable before the shooting occurs, to help inform efforts to prevent school-based attacks. The study found that school shootings are rarely impulsive acts. Rather, they are typically thought out and planned out in advance. In addition, prior to most shootings other kids knew the shooting was to occur - but did not alert an adult. Very few of the attackers, however, ever directed threats to their targets before the attack. The study findings also revealed that there is no "profile" of a school shooter; instead, the students who carried out the attacks differed
