Takeaways: • School safety is a top priority for educators. • Emotional and psychological safety is harder to address than physical safety. • Proactive approaches can prevent crises in schools. • Clear structures and routines help create a predictable environment. • MTSS should address both academic and social-emotional needs equally. • Data from threat assessments is crucial for planning interventions. • Community support enhances the effectiveness of school safety measures. • Training staff on responses to crises is essential. • Building a sense of belonging improves student engagement. • Confidentiality must be balanced with the need for support.
