We can prevent casualties in school shootings—by changing how we plan safety. This concise field guide adapts high-reliability practices to K–12 security, giving a consistent, equitable way to protect schools.
Instead of focusing preparedness on past shootings, John Menna—a veteran in safety engineering—presents Principled Safety®, a forward-looking, scenario-based method that replaces guesswork and piecemeal “best practices” to protect every student, not just those behind a locked door.
Stop reacting after violence. Learn to analyze credible threats, design layered protections, and verify performances so controls work under pressure. Visual and practical, this book equips administrators, boards, planners, parents, policymakers, and SROs to deliver consistent protection.
Delivered to your email after purchase.
