Wise urges local tailored safety plans for West Virginia schools and favors a toll free state wide safety line. He cites existing county lines in Harrison Berkley and Wood, urges federal state coordination, and aims for safer schools by September with a nine area framework including prevention parental involvement and law enforcement coordination.
School Violence Prevention and Community Involvement Report Card
The report describes a comprehensive safety framework including an incident logging system, mandatory visitor check-ins, student removal procedures for disruptive behavior, broad parent and student notification of rules, and a zero tolerance stance on bullying. It notes violence prevention hotlines, staff and student training, early prevention programs, and a parental involvement section with volunteer screening, homework notifications, and chaperone roles. It also covers alternative programs, facilities security measures, student reporting channels, conflict resolution, and extensive staff development. Law enforcement collaborations, resource officers, and community partnerships with libraries, after school programs, and media outreach are outlined, along with a required summary box for strengths, weaknesses, and action plans.
