Safe at School

Schools exist for learning, but they should also feel secure to every child who walks through the door. This book explains why safety matters in the classroom and hallways and introduces everyday habits that help keep students protected. Young readers learn how getting to know their teacher, staying close to their friends, and treating classmates kindly all contribute to a safer school.

The text is written at a reading level of 0.5 to 0.9 on the ATOS scale, which suits children who are just beginning to read on their own. Bright, colorful illustrations accompany the words, and a Words to Know section, an index, and links to supplemental websites give readers ways to explore the topic further.
