Schools and Universities

Schools and universities are increasingly vulnerable to crime and violence. A school is three times more likely to be burglarized than a business, and vandalism costs schools more than $1 billion a year. According to the National Education Association, every hour of every school day, 900 teachers are threatened and more than 2,000 students and nearly 40 teachers are physically attacked on school grounds. Safety concerns take up too much time and attention.

Here is an example of a multi-building high school with on premises parking. The gymnasium is separated from the main building by an external walkway.

The numbers at the various risk points display the risk associated with them.
