Using data from the School Survey on Crime and Safety (SSOCS), this report presents findings both on crime and violence in U.S. public schools and on the practices and programs schools have used to promote school safety. SSOCS is managed by the National Center for Education Statistics (NCES) within the U.S. Department of Education’s Institute of Education Sciences. The survey has been fielded nine times, most recently during the 2021–22 school year. The 2021–22 SSOCS (SSOCS:2022) was funded jointly with the Department’s Office of Safe and Supportive Schools.
