Safe School: Nonviolent School Intervention

Is your school safe?

The fear of violence in our schools is eroding our confidence in one of our most sacred institutions. In this book, you will learn how to implement simple steps to protect yourself and your students. Drawing from both academic research and real-world experience, author Kevin Secours shares his insights as a teacher and self-defense expert. In addition, he calls upon a collection of expert colleagues ranging from bodyguards, law enforcement, special forces, and veteran educators to share their mastery. You will learn battle-tested strategies for detecting aggression earlier, diverting and de-escalating hostility, and creating a healthy and dynamic learning environment. Each of these lessons shows that the wisdom of prevention and inclusion remains the only true solution to violence.

These life-changing strategies can apply to violence anywhere and are essential for anyone who is serious about their personal protection.
