Resource Guide on School Climate

This past April the U.S. Department of Education released the Parent and Educator Guide to School Climate Resources. According to the Guide, its purpose "is to provide general information about the concept of school climate improvement, suggestions for leading an effective school climate improvement effort, and additional resources for those interested in more information."

Final Chance to Register for the Digital Threat Assessment Classes in Fairview Heights

The goal of the Digital Threat Assessment class is to give attendees a stronger understanding of the current social media world, tools to be able to proactively identify student safety concerns, and provide strategies for dealing with online situations as they arise. Building upon the Digital Threat Assessment class, Advanced Digital Threat Assessment will leave participants with a concrete understanding of how to find and curate relevant digital information as is typically represented in a real-life digital threat assessment data gathering scenario.
