Summary
School Crisis Case Studies was written for educators so that they are prepared in the event that a crisis occurs within their school. In this book, Helen Sharp presents specific cases in K-12 school settings that require urgent solutions. The author also explains control procedures and offers strategies that are key toward resumption of instructional services. The wide range of crisis events presented in this book will prompt feedback, elicit comments and suggestions, and allow current and future educators to reflect on what is available to contain these events.
