Articles Contained in SIRS Enduring Issues 2004. Originally Published: Crime in the Schools: Many Attacks on Teachers Not Reported..., March 3, 2003; pp. 1A+.

"State education department rules require that attacks on school employees be referred to police as soon as possible. Administrators and police are required to report them to the state. Yet dozens of cases of assaults on teachers reported to school police aren't being prosecuted and don't show up in district [Palm Beach County, FL] crime figures sent to the state Department of Education." (SUN-SENTINEL) This article reports on the "atmosphere of intimidation and fear that discourages some employees from speaking up about safety concerns."
