| Graduation: Resiliency and Risk Management
|
|
It's that time of year when students walk across the stage, and friends and family gather to celebrate the culmination of many years of teaching and learning.
Resiliency is a big part of getting to graduation. Everyone
involved in managing risks - parents, board members, administrators at all levels, faculty and
staff - has helped make it possible for graduating students to reach this point in their lives.
***
Across the nation, more than 100,000 schools have started going through some kind of transition. Summer sessions will be starting shortly. Some schools may be closing for good. Difficult decisions are being made about personnel, transportation, support services, schedules and classroom sizes. The next few weeks will provide opportunities for discovery and renewal, for finding encouragement, resources and effective risk management solutions that improve services for new and returning students.

US Department of Education Begins Bullying Prevention Dialogue
| | During a webinar on May 19, Kevin Jennings, who heads the US Drug Free & Safe School program, described immediate plans and goals to help local school districts prevent bullying. He answered questions, responded to comments and took note of several examples of programs that were reported by participants as having positive impact on the threat to student safety.
Executive Director Mike Martin and the staff of the National Association for Pupil Transportation worked behind the scenes to organize and promote the webinar. The audio tape of the event will be available shortly.
