520 | |a The problem addressed by this study is how violence in the school affects school safety teams' perceptions of safety. School safety teams are often made up of a principal, counselor, school resource officer and a teacher, in an effort to address safety issues in the school. Studies show that students tend to report unsafe behaviors in school the more they are able to trust their teachers, which helps to create a more informed environment for administration and students alike, as well as a safer school. The purpose of this qualitative study was to understand how violence in the school affects urban high school safety teams' perceptions of safety in the school to give administrators who are responsible for creating and enforcing policies around safety, feedback to update policies to reflect a safer learning environment. Interviews and anonymous surveys were used to assess the level of perceived safety in school throughout the United States. The Culture of Violence theory describes why acts of violence occur individually or within societal systems. The Culture of Violence theory legitimizes the idea that different cultures have the ability to influence violence. The study utilized a qualitative research design. Thirty two full time school safety team members were surveyed and interviewed. The study yielded evidence that despite the increased number of reported active shooter situations being reported in the United States on a yearly basis, educators do not have a negative opinion of school safety. The implications of the study propose that additional research is needed to focus on how proper training can be provided to teachers, counselors and administrators to ensure that they have the knowledge needed to educate the students on what bullying is, how and when to report bullying and how to keep themselves as well as the other students safe at school. By including students in the study, the researcher would be able to compare and contrast the perceptions of safety identified by the safety team members as well as the students. | ||
