Latest Report Shows Major Gains in U.S. School Safety
New data from the National Center for Education Statistics shows that public school safety is at an all-time high with recent drops in bullying rates as well as theft and assault. Schools have done a lot to help, upping security on campus. In just over a decade, the number of American public schools using security cameras rose from 10 to 75 percent. Despite these gains, U.S. Department of Education officials are still encouraging progress where student safety is concerned. (Huffington Post)
