The Path to Violence
Grades 11-Adult 2013 60 min CC PBS
Ever since the wake-up call that was Columbine, schools and
law enforcement have developed mul ple strategies to prevent
a acks. Indeed, the horror of Newtown needs to be seen in a
context that’s not defi ned by defeat. Remarkably, more than
120 school assaults have been thwarted in the past ten years.
But, while security hardware and physical barriers can play a
deterrent role, it’s been psychologists - working hand in hand
with law enforcement offi cers - who have come up with the
most helpful tools to prevent violent a acks. PBS’s “The Path
to Violence” tells the story of a powerfully eff ec ve Secret
Service program - the Safe School Ini a ve - that’s helped
schools detect problem behaviour in advance.
