- Title
School crime and student rights: 'surprises' from a federal initiative.
- Authors
Tremper, Charles
- Abstract
The National School Crime and Student Misbehavior Project, sponsored by the federal Departments of Justice and Education, introduced law enforcement and community development techniques in three urban school districts. Contrary to the project sponsors' assumptions that schools were crime-ridden and that due process requirements were preventing school administrators from responding effectively to criminal activity, the study found school safety and respect for students' procedural rights to be compatible. The new project techniques produced few benefits by themselves, but may be incorporated into more promising approaches to school crime and student misbehavior.
