Cooze, Jim

Education Canada, v35 n3 p38-41 Fall 1995

Each year, millions of Canadian taxpayers' dollars are spent on repairing or replacing school property because of student vandalism. The literature reveals that there is no single factor that fully explains the causes of student vandalism. Includes strategies for combatting school vandalism that focus on the school environment, the school system, and the community. (LP)
