Perry answer that call in The Handbook for School Safety and Security. These thought leaders bring together twenty industry subject matter experts to provide a comprehensive view of current best practices and procedures for K-12 schools. Topics include school crime prevention, physical security, operational issues, threats, and solutions. This book is resource rich with a unique chapter entitled, “100 Things You Need To Know About School Security”, multiple QR2id codes to scan for additional information and ASIS International’s list of school security websites, associations, organizations and publications.The Handbook for School Safety and Security can easily serve as the go-to reference manual for school administrators and security professionals.
