Frank
Green, LPC (retired Military Officer) co-founder and Executive Director of
Keys To Safer Schools.com will discuss this important issue as a
Key Note
Speaker at the 16th Annual Conference of SEMA/MEPA
(State
Emergency Management Agency and Missouri Emergency
Preparedness Association). Mr. Green's
presentation is unique in this field on two key points; First,
he speaks from first hand knowledge of international
terrorists and counter measures. Second, he provides very
practical actions that participants can take back to their
school/organizations and
apply immediately.
---------------------------------- 6. Tips for Students: How to Show Respect
If you don't stand up for yourself, no one else will. This is the rule of the day according to television, movies and your peers. But RESPECT for others will go a long way toward helping you reach your goals and living without conflict. Here are some ideas you might try:
---------------------------------- 7. No Sticks, No Stones, No Dissin'
Yes, this means that we as adults need to set the example. This is the theme for the "National No Name-Calling Week" at Gautier Middle School in Mississippi. Students wore different colored T-shirts on each of the different days of the week, such as, yellow on the "Golden Rule Day." Other schools across the nation emphasized "No Name-Calling" as a way to reinforce that words can be just as damaging as sticks or stones, regardless of the old saying to the contrary. In reality, the pain from a stick will stop in a few minutes, the bruise from a stone will go away in a few days, but the pain from cruel words can last a life time. It would be good for all of us who work with young people to remember this every day, beyond this special week. One of life's greatest rewards is to have an adult say to you that something you said when he or she was child made a tremendous difference in their life. They never forgot it; and we never remember it. Let us always be careful that our words to children encourage them to use respectful words to others.

Can
you be sued? The
quick answer is, "YES!" Most school staff members feel safe
from legal action because their state legislature has enacted Tort
Reform laws to protect them. However, our legal system is built on the
strength in loop holes. At last count there were over 250+ lawsuits
pending against Districts, Administrators, Board Members and other
school staff across the United States. A good place to find some of the
past cases of note is at
OverLawyered.com. One of the legal principles being employed to
bring suits is found in Harris v. Canton where the court found that a
government agency failed to provide training that was reasonably
available to its employees and that not having that training contributed
to death or injury. This comes up quite often when a student is injured
by another student. Is there training reasonably available to help
schools prevent or mitigate such violence? If you have questions about
your
staff's training, please contact
Keys or visit our
List of Trainings to determine how we may meet your needs.
