America's Safe Schools Week
The National School Safety Center (NSSC) has declared the week of October 17-23 America's Safe Schools Week.

School safety is the focus of the NSSC's efforts, and of this week's Education World stories.

In this issue, teachers will find helpful Internet resources for teaching conflict resolution in the classroom and the latest children's books with messages of tolerance; and we'll point school administrators to resources that will help them analyze school safety needs and programs.

Take a capsule look below at this week's stories:
