Staying Safe at School: What You Need to Know

by Chester L. Quarles

Written to youth, this timely book informs teens (and parents) what every student can do to increase his or her own safety, both at school and in the community. With 40% of all robberies involving children occurring at school and 36% of all criminal assaults involving children occurring at school, the "myth" is that the individual can do very little to prevent, deter, or avoid crime. This book challenges that myth by showing teens (and parents) what to do to protect themselves.
