A 2014 report entitled Indicators of School Crime and Safety provides data on crime and safety in schools from the perspectives of students, teachers, and principals. This annual report is a joint effort by the Bureau of Justice Statistics (BJS) and the National Center for Education Statistics (NCES). It offers current detailed statistics on the nature of crimes in schools. The report contains 23 indicators of crime from a number of sources, including the National Crime Victimization Survey (NCVS), the School Crime Supplement to the NCVS, the Youth Risk Behavior Survey, the School Survey on Crime and Safety, and the School and Staffing Survey. Topics covered include victimization at school, teacher injury, bullying and cyberbullying, school conditions, fights, weapons, availability and student use of drugs and alcohol, student perceptions of personal safety at school, and crime at postsecondary institutions. The report contains some important highlights.
