Background and Brief Description The Division of Violence Prevention (DVP), National Center for Injury Prevention and Control (NCIPC) proposes to maintain a system for the surveillance of school-associated homicides and suicides. The system will rely on existing public records and interviews with law enforcement officials and school officials. The purpose of the system is to (1) estimate the rate of school-associated violent death in the United States and (2) identify common features of schoolassociated violent deaths. The system will contribute to the understanding of fatal violence associated with schools, guide further research in the area, and help direct ongoing and future prevention programs. Violence is the leading cause of death among young people, and increasingly recognized as an important public health and social issue. In 1998, over 3,500 school aged children (5 to 18 years old) in the United States died violent deaths due to suicide, homicide, and unintentional firearm injuries. The vast majority of these fatal injuries were not school associated. However, whenever a homicide or suicide occurs in or around school, it becomes a matter of particularly intense public interest and concern. NCIPC conducted the first scientific study of school-associated violent deaths during the 1992–99 academic years to establish the true extent of this highly visible problem. Despite the important role of schools as a setting for violence research and prevention interventions, relatively little scientific or systematic work has been done to describe the nature and level of fatal violence associated with schools. Until NCIPC conducted the first nationwide investigation of violent deaths associated with schools, public health and education officials had to rely on limited local studies and estimated numbers to describe the extent of school-associated violent death. The system will draw cases from the entire United States in attempting to capture all cases of school-associated violent deaths that have occurred. Investigators will review public records and published press reports concerning each school-associated violent death. For each identified case, investigators will also interview an investigating law enforcement official (defined as a police officer, police chief, or district attorney), and a school official (defined as a school principal, school superintendent, school counselor, school teacher, or school support staff) who are knowledgeable about the case in question. Researchers will request information on both the victim and alleged offender(s)— including demographic data, their academic and criminal records, and their relationship to one another. They will also collect data on the time and location of the death; the circumstances, motive, and method of the fatal injury; and the security and violence prevention activities in the school and community where the death occurred, before and after the fatal injury event. There are no costs to the respondents other than their time. The total estimated annualized burden hours are 70.

Proposed Project

    School Associated Violent Death Surveillance System--Extension--
National Center for Injury Prevention and Control (NCIPC), Centers for 
Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).

Background and Brief Description

    The Division of Violence Prevention (DVP), National Center for 
Injury Prevention and Control (NCIPC) proposes to maintain a system for 
the surveillance of school-associated homicides and suicides. The 
system will rely on existing public records and interviews with law 
enforcement officials and school officials. The purpose of the system 
is to (1) estimate the rate of school-associated violent death in the 
United States and (2) identify common features of school-associated 
violent deaths. The system will contribute to the understanding of 
fatal violence associated with schools, guide further research in the 
area, and help direct ongoing and future prevention programs.
    Violence is the leading cause of death among young people, and 
increasingly recognized as an important public health and social issue. 
In 1998, over 3,500 school aged children (5 to 18 years old) in the 
United States died violent deaths due to suicide, homicide, and 
unintentional firearm injuries. The vast majority of these fatal 
injuries were not school associated. However, whenever a homicide or 
suicide occurs in or around school, it becomes a matter of particularly 
intense public interest and concern. NCIPC conducted the first 
scientific study of school-associated violent deaths during the 1992-99 
academic years to establish the true extent of this highly visible 
problem. Despite the important role of schools as a setting for 
violence research and prevention interventions, relatively little 
scientific or systematic work has been done to describe the nature and 
level of fatal violence associated with schools. Until NCIPC conducted 
the first nationwide investigation of violent deaths associated with 
schools, public health and education officials had to rely on limited 
local studies and estimated numbers to describe the extent of school-
associated violent death.
    The system will draw cases from the entire United States in 
attempting to capture all cases of school-associated violent deaths 
that have occurred. Investigators will review public records and 
published press reports concerning each school-associated violent 
death. For each identified case, investigators will also interview an 
investigating law enforcement official (defined as a police officer, 
police chief, or district attorney), and a school official (defined as 
a school principal, school superintendent, school counselor, school 
teacher, or school support staff) who are knowledgeable about the case 
in question. Researchers will request information on both the victim 
and alleged offender(s)--including demographic data, their academic and 
criminal records, and their relationship to one another. They will also 
collect data on the time and location of the death; the circumstances, 
motive, and method of the fatal injury; and the security and violence 
prevention activities in the school and community where the death 
occurred, before and after the fatal injury event. There are no costs 
to the respondents other than their time. The total estimated 
annualized burden hours are 70.
