Add to My BasketDescription
School Safety and Discipline, 2013–14 (FRSS 106) is a study that is part of the Fast Response Survey System (FRSS) program; program data are available since 1998–99 at https://nces.ed.gov/surveys/frss/downloads.asp. FRSS 106 (https://nces.ed.gov/surveys/frss/index.asp) is a study that provides nationally representative data on safety and discipline in public schools. The study was conducted using mailed questionnaires that could be completed on paper or online. Public schools in each level (elementary, middle, high school, and combined) were sampled. The study's weighted response rate was 85%. Key statistics produced from FRSS 106 will provide information on specific safety and discipline plans and practices; training for teachers and aides related to school safety and discipline issues; use of law enforcement or security personnel on school grounds; frequency of specific discipline problems; and the number of incidents of various crimes that occurred during the 2013–14 school year.
Detailed Methodology
1,580 public schools serving pk-12 students were sampled and 1,350 responded. The sample was stratified by instructional level, urbanicity, enrollment size, region, and the inverse of the White, non-Hispanic rate of enrollment. Schools were sampled from the 50 states and DC. Schools without enrollment in grade 1 or higher, without students, with only ungraded students, special education schools, vocational schools, and alternative schools were excluded from the sample.
