School Safety

School Safety*

There is much concern in our community and in communities across the country about School Safety, and the broad issue of violence in our schools. There are many contributing factors. While many people recognize that violence in our schools is symptomatic of a much deeper social/cultural dis-ease, we recognize that we must take action now to address the symptoms. Let's come together in civil and respectful dialogue to explore the causes, the symptoms, and seek solutions.
