Student Involvement lines

Students need to be involved in meaningful ways in their schools. By becoming involved, students are able to build connections to fellow students and staff. These connections enable students to feel that they are part of a larger whole and foster awareness of how important their contributions can be. Students who are connected and involved are less likely to exhibit inappropriate behaviors and more likely to be involved in positive activities.

Student involvement in school safety can take place in many ways.
