Reviews

Prevention and intervention: What every parent (and school leader) should know about school violence. In book three of this series, Dr. Giordano explores two burning questions on the minds of parents - how to prevent school violence and how to intervene if prevention fails. This timely and provocative book is essential for parents and educators alike, and guides the reader through questions and recommendations aimed at mitigating school violence and improving the nation's schools. -- Paula Summers Calderon, PhD, Dean, College of Education, Southeastern Louisiana University Giordano's perspective has the potential to shift the narrative that is currently shaping the mindset in how to approach school safety, and cause all stakeholders in education to rethink what it means to improve schools.- -- Sarah Oberbeck, Assistant Principal of a Florida Public School
