Since June 1999, the U.S. Department of Education and the U.S. Secret Service have been working as a team to better understand--and ultimately help prevent--school shootings in America. Findings indicated that incidents of targeted violence in school were rarely impulsive; that the students who perpetrated attacks usually planned them out in advance with planning behavior that was often observable; and that, prior to most attacks, other children knew that the attack was to occur. This document uses these findings to create a process for identifying, assessing, and managing students who may pose a threat of targeted violence in schools. Eight chapters include: (1).Introduction: Threat Assessment and the Prevention of Targeted School Violence; (2) Creating Climates of School Safety: A Foundation For Reducing School Violence; ( 3 ) Key Findings of the Safe School Initiative's Study of Targeted School Violence; (4) Implementing a School Threat Assessment PrOCeSS; ( 5 ) Conducting a School Threat Assessment; (6) Managing a Threatening Situation; (7) 'IAction Plans for School Leaders: Creating a Safe and Connected School Climate and Implementing a Threat Assessment Program; and (8) Conclusion: Threat Assessment as a Decision-Making Tool. An appendix contains a list of annotated resources. (Contains 24 references and 2 resource Web sites.) .
