Safe & Supportive Schools
Adleman and Taylor (2002), note that an extensive and growing body of literature indicates the relationship between a comprehensive student support program, student mental and emotional health, improved student attendance, and the academic success of the student in school. The Safe & Supportive Schools element of SAS supplies resources and exemplars to promote active student engagement in a safe and positive learning environment. Areas within the element include the following: Engagement, Safety, and Environment.
