The SERAPH Research Team http://www.seraph.net/ which provides a biyearly school safety report for Congress has released its “FIVE CRITICAL SCHOOL SECURITY ISSUES list.

The list was developed from interviews with teachers, school security personnel, police and principals from 120 school districts throughout the United States.

1. LACK OF ACCURATE UNDERSTANDING OF SECURITY ISSUES – Many schools and school districts have performed poor assessments of their school safety as it relates to everyday management of the schools.  

Schools have security audits performed which focus on physical security such as cameras and emergency plans. These audits do not address classroom management, sub cultural groups, educational objectives, special education, negative behavior cliques and sexual issues.

GANGS GROW IN SUBURBAN SCHOOLS

The US Department of Justice has released a report that states the growth of criminal gangs is increasing in all socio economic areas of the country.

SERAPH who provides school safety consulting to over 20,000 schools in the U.S. has observed a dramatic increase in gang recruitment in suburban schools.

Ron Holvey, Gang Interdiction Special Consultant for SERAPH explains the problem, “School officials have been caught off guard by the rise of gangs in suburban areas. Straight Edge, Juggalos, Crips and Bloods have all been recruiting juveniles in these areas of the country.”

Children, Youth & Police:

10TH Annual Statewide Conference For All Connecticut Police Agencies

The 10th annual police conference began with a video presentation developed by the JJAC entitled “Conversations with Youth and Police in Connecticut.” The featured speaker was Dale Yeager from SERAPH, who stressed that good police work involves keeping up-to-date on problems and trends. The afternoon was lead by a team from the FBI’s Innocent Images Task Force that discussed responding to computer crimes and concluded the afternoon with a case presentation of United States vs. Hopkins. Over 280 persons attended this event which was held on November 23, 2004 at the Radisson Hotel in Cromwell.

The TASA Group Presents:

School Safety: Five High Liability Issues for Public Schools

On November 18, 2009, The TASA Group, Inc., in conjunction with school security experts Dale Yeager and Andy Demidont, presented a one-house, interactive webinar for attorneys involved with public schools. The webinar will cover five key issues related to safety and security problems in elementary, middle and high schools:

• Lack of Accurate Understanding of Safety Issues: Planning Without Assessment, Guessing Is Not Planning.
• Reaction and Prediction
• Poor Management of Schools: The Real Issue in School Safety.

7 Ways Security Management Can Put Money Into Your Bottom Line

In the operation of any business, management decisions have a direct affect on profitability. In 1996, the SERAPH executive team decided to design a new approach to security management. Using the organizational concepts of Peter Drucker and the human behavior models of forensic psychology, we designed a new form of security management.

Legendary management sage Peter Drucker once said, “Management is doing things right; leadership is doing the right things”.

Investor Fraud and Ponzi schemes

Indictments for Ponzi schemes and investor fraud have been increasing everyday. While pundits, congress and financial experts pinpoint problems with regulatory agencies such as the SEC, the real problem centers on what I call the “Due Diligence Mess,” the way in which this process is handled within the legal and financial community.

After the recent sentencing of Bernard Madoff one of his victims made this statement to USA Today, “My due diligence was the SEC. What greater due diligence can you have than the SEC? They failed us.”

News Release

UB to Host Seventh Annual Safe Schools Initiative Seminar March 11

BUFFALO, N.Y. – The University at Buffalo will host the seventh annual Safe Schools Initiative Seminar from 8:30 a.m. to 1 p.m. on March 11 in the Center for the Arts on the UB North Campus.

This years program will provide a detailed look at the development of gangs and cliques through school-related problems. In particular, it will review how the lack of an effective truancy program provides the impetus for the development of negative-behavior cliques in school and how these cliques develop into organized gangs. This program will address techniques for dealing with gangs in communities and schools, and provide current information on street gang involvement in schools and the rise of negative youth movements, such as Straight Edge, and the increasing danger of Juggalos.
