School Leaders Applaud U.S. Department of Justice Decision to Address Violent Threats Against School Leaders and Teachers
October 6, 2021
The National Association of Secondary School Principals (NASSP) lauds the Justice Department’s announcement that the FBI will work with federal attorneys, as well as state and local leaders, to discuss strategies for countering threats against principals, teachers, school board members, and other educators.
For weeks, NASSP has been calling on federal officials to protect school leaders from rampant hostility and violence that disrupts our schools and threatens the safety of our educators and students. Some NASSP members have been faced with hostile community members, threats to their own safety or safety of their school, and non-compliance with rules that are meant to keep us all safe.
Please Note: PA Principals Association Past President and NASSP Board Member, Dr. Bill Ziegler, is quoted in this press release.
