School Order and Safety as Community Issues.

Menacker, Julius; And Others

Phi Delta Kappan, v71 n1 p39-40,55-56 Sep 1989

Based on a two-year study of four elementary schools in a poor, crime-ridden section of Chicago, this article finds the public school an island of relative safety in an ocean of danger. Community-wide approaches are needed to stop lawlessness and fear in innercity schools. Includes seven references. (MLH)
