This book offers readers twenty crisis case studies from the inside of
school buildings. The author_a licensed administrator and former
teacher_presents salient situations and incidents that, unfortunately,
are almost common occurrences. These might include disaffected pupils;
intruder(s) in a building; a school's potentially negative atmosphere;
skills learning vs. project learning; and girls fighting. All cases
are realistic, timely, and thought-provoking, supplemented with a
series of discussion questions for a school staff or safety group or a
university student enrolled in an administrative course of study.
Rather than a theoretical approach or one based on scientific
investigation or a specific model, the author describes events and
circumstances that are present and problematic in many schools here
and abroad. Becoming familiar with potential solutions is as important
as pinpointing available sources in one's own school district. School
Crisis Case Studies provides readers with the opportunity to
anticipate specific crisis situations and suggests responses, using
the security measures and personnel available in the schools they are
familiar with.
