Abstract
On January 16, 2013, the White House released the president's plan Now Is the Time. The aim of the plan is to safeguard U.S. children from the increasing rate of violence taking place in U.S. schools and communities. Although the catalyst of the report was the school shooting in Newtown, Connecticut, the issue's prominence has been underscored by the occurrence of four school-related shootings since Newtown. Although school shootings are rare, tragic, and arguably preventable, schools are rapidly facing an array of other issues eroding the health of school culture and climate.Keywords
