The National Parent Teacher Association (PTA) has ideas and resources for families to support school safety.
Examples include:
- 20 Questions to Ask: Helps parents/caregivers have a conversation with school leaders and other staff about school safety policies and procedures, preventative resources for students, families and school personnel, and what type of communication channels are in place for families and students.
- Mobilizing Family Stakeholders: Provides PTA or other school groups with resources to get in the know about school safety, host a school safety forum and advocate to decision makers about school safety.
- Webinar: School Safety—Mobilizing for Change: Focuses on action—what family members and PTAs can do to ensure that schools are safe and supportive places for our children to learn.
