Preface
"There are two types of school personnel: those who have been through a crisis and those who will go through a crisis. Dr. Thompson's book hits all the critical topics and is a powerful resource for both groups."
- Dr. Glenn L. Koonce, Associate Professor, Regent University
"I believe this book clearly extricates the need for strategic crisis management in schools throughout America. Without a doubt, critical incidents and disastrous situations impose upon the learning of students and impact the culture of the community.
The writing is superb and offers magnanimous research data for educators in their quest to develop programs for respective professionals who are given the task of ensuring students feel safe in schools. This information will also assist professionals in higher education as they prepare education candidates for real-life episodes in schools and communities."
