School Safety Report
KENTUCKY...
A just-released study shows Kentucky schools are safer than they were ten years ago.
The 10th annual Safe Schools Data Project Report was released by the Kentucky Center for School Safety. Some of the trends it shows are a decrease in menacing, or bullying, and a decrease in drug possession. However, drug sales in schools are on the rise, as are fights.
While schools are getting safer, officials with the Center for School Safety said they are worried about future funding. The study on school safety also showed that corporal punishment is down across the Commonwealth.
