The document discusses ways to improve school safety and reduce violence in schools. It suggests that schools should practice their emergency response plans like ALICE (Alert, Lockdown, Inform, Counter, Evacuate) more than once so that students and teachers are prepared. Regular practice is important as school intruder situations typically only last 5-7 minutes. The document also recommends using clear, simple language during lockdowns so instructions are not confusing. Schools should focus on teaching students how to protect themselves and others in emergency situations. Improving safety measures and emergency preparedness in schools is crucial to protect students and allow them to learn without fear.
