Improvement/Safety School Issues Article S C H O O L I S S U E S A R T I C L E Information Sharing to Make Colorado Schools Safer In 1994, an amended federal law opened the door for Colorado to enact a law this year to allow school and criminal justice officials to share information about violent and disruptive students. The new law is intended to help prevent future school violence. Will more states follow Colorado and the other states that have enacted this law? A year after the Columbine High School tragedy, the Colorado legislature passed a law revoking prior privacy constraints that have hindered teachers and police from sharing information about troubled students. A 1994 amendment to a federal law allowed Colorado to pass the new law. Without a state law that specifically provides for a juvenile justice exemption from the federal privacy act, federal law requires schools and criminal justice officials to obtain either the child's and parent's consent or a court subpoena to obtain records. The federal law requires that information be kept confidential because disclosure of certain information could have an impact on student and family privacy. The law is described in the 71-page Colorado School Violence Prevention and Student Discipline Manual , published by the Colorado State Attorney's office. The updated manual includes provisions for information sharing (see

Department of Law January 28, 2002 HELP AVAILABLE TO SCHOOLS ON SCHOOL SECURITY AND SAFETY PLANNING Denver. In light of recent investigations into allegations of sexual assaults occurring at two schools, many schools have announced that they are examining options for making their schools safer. To assist schools in these efforts, Attorney General Ken Salazar and Dr. Del Elliott from the Center for the Study and Prevention of Violence at CU-Boulder, today issued this advisory to inform communities about safe school planning assistance available through the Safe Communities-Safe Schools Initiative. Although there is no fail-safe approach, developing comprehensive safe school plans contributes to a safer environment in our schools. Safe school planning includes the development of policies and procedures that address issues of school security. As part of the safe school planning process, the Center encourages the development of school/community planning teams that should consider: 1) appropriate supervision and security during and after school; 2) identification of areas within a school and times of day for vulnerability; 3) provisions for screening visitors; and 4) development of procedures to handle unauthorized visitors. Appropriate measures can then be considered and action taken to address issues of vulnerability. This assistance in safe school planning is available to schools and communities in Colorado through a grant by The Colorado Trust to the Center for the Study and Prevention of Violence at CU-Boulder as part of the Safe Communities-Safe Schools Initiative. The Initiative was designed to help Colorado schools and communities to establish safe school plans. Safe school planning includes school assessments, crisis management, recommendations for effective violence prevention programs, and the development of an interagency social support team to support at-risk students.

Department of Law May 15, 2002 11 COLORADO SCHOOLS TO PARTICIPATE IN "BULLY-PROOFING YOUR SCHOOL" PROGRAM AS PART OF 3-YEAR IMPLEMENTATION Denver-Colorado Attorney General Ken Salazar, Ed Guajardo Lucero, program officer for The Colorado Trust, and Dr. Delbert Elliott, director of the Center for the Study and Prevention of Violence at CU-Boulder, announced today that eleven Colorado grade and middle schools will participate in a 3-year implementation of the "Bully-Proofing Your School" program beginning this Fall as part of the Safe Communities-Safe Schools Initiative and the Colorado Anti-Bullying Project. The Bully-Proofing Your School program was announced today at Vivian Elementary School in Lakewood, one of the schools which will participate in the program. Bully-Proofing Your School is a comprehensive school climate program designed to support schools in creating a safe learning environment. The program focuses on converting the silent majority, who are neither bullies nor victims, into the caring majority who join together to take a stand for a safe and bully-free school. The Bully-Proofing program is designed for elementary and middle school students with specific curriculum designed for each level. The program includes six basic components: staff training, student instruction, support of the victims, intervention with the bullies, systems intervention, and the development of a positive, caring climate within the school. It was developed by Dr. William Porter, Director of Student Achievement Services in the Cherry Creek Schools, and four other professionals in the Cherry Creek District. The Bully-Proofing program is used in elementary and middle schools both locally and nationally.

The initiative, a statewide effort to assist schools and communities in safe school planning, was announced last December by Dr. Delbert Elliott, director of the CU Center, The Colorado Trust, and Colorado Attorney General Ken Salazar. The initiative was developed under the direction of Dr. Elliott, a nationally known violence prevention expert. The program is funded by a $1 million grant from The Colorado Trust. The initiative is unique in the nation because it relies upon intensive school-community collaboration in both preventing and responding to youth violence. Over the three years of the initiative, which began last October, the Violence Center will provide any of Colorado's 1,500 schools or their school districts with information, practical planning tools, and technical assistance to conduct safe school planning that addresses their community's unique needs.
