Abstract

One of the tasks of the Council for School Performance is to implement measures of school safety to determine the impact of Georgia Lottery for Education expenditures. During the 1994-95 school year, the council pilot-tested several indicators of school safety. This document presents the results of an evaluation that examined the relevance, validity, and reliability of the piloted indicators. The study also explored the data-collection process, incentives and disincentives to accurate reporting, and the extent to which schools perceived the reporting process as an acceptable administrative burden of the pilot program. The evaluations were conducted at 15 Georgia public schools. Data-collection methods included a review of school statistics and interviews with school administrators, security personnel, teachers, and students. Respondents indicated that the reporting process was worthwhile; however, they lacked reliable baseline data and displayed a poor understanding of key indicator definitions. Respondents from the same school often reported widely different estimates of safety-related incidents, and there was evidence of biased reporting at some schools. Policymakers are advised to continue pilot studies; simplify indicators; incorporate indicator reports into ongoing data-collection efforts and include mechanisms to validate indicator reports; reinforce accurate reporting with positive incentives; increase the use of outcome measures with clearly defined benchmarks; report reliable and valid pilot- study results to the public; and use victimization surveys to gauge the impact of school-safety interventions. One table is included. Appendices contain a map of evaluation regions, a copy of the evaluation proposal, guidelines and reporting forms for school indicators, and proposed indicator revisions.

2. An Evaluation of Lottery Expenditures for Public School Safety in Georgia.

Abstract

In 1994, approximately $20 million of Georgia Lottery for Education funds were spent to make schools safer. This report presents the results of an evaluation of Georgia Lottery for Education expenditures for technologies related to school safety. The study evaluated the safety technology at 15 Georgia public schools. Data were gathered through interviews with school administrators, security personnel, teachers, and students about drugs, alcohol, firearms, and violence in the schools and on-site inspections. Overall, students and staff perceived that their own school was safe, but felt that other schools might be unsafe. Drawbacks to the technological security interventions included unanticipated expenditures and a negative impact on public perceptions of school safety. The report recommends that policymakers examine the magnitude of school violence relative to other safety problems faced by students and staff; target spending to schools with identified safety problems; increase the emphasis on school climate and leadership as primary determinants of school safety; share information and resources among schools; and integrate evaluation into the design and dissemination of any new school-safety initiative. One table is included. Appendices include a map of the evaluated regions and sample application forms and guidelines. (LMI)
