Establish priorities and review the best practices for educators in schools with violence and other gang related activity
Currently, more than one third of all students from 5th-12th grade report gang activity at their schools. Breaking Barriers: Reducing Gang Violence, Improving Security and Creating a Culture of Learning in Schools will highlight original analyses of nearly 4,600 students who completed the National Crime Victimization Study – School Crime Supplement. From that study educators will learn ways to guide students away from gang violence and towards academic success.
Presenter Dr. Ivory Toldson will share characteristics of students and schools most likely to be affected by school violence, and the effectiveness of commonly implemented school violence reduction strategies. The seminar will emphasize the emotional toll school violence has on students, and how teachers, counselors, and school administrators can create an environment to help students overcome violence-related stress and enjoy higher levels of academic success.
Inside the School’s online seminar will discuss the increased anxiety, lower levels of academic achievement and satisfaction among students and how educators can support them. Educators will review practices for confronting school violence and explore the unintended consequences of violence awareness.
