YOU ARE HERE: Violence in School, Safety

Each week, we like to cover topics with global importance but with relevance to you.

Americans have one of the best education systems in the world. But, it's not perfect. Newton, Connecticut resumed their fall semester, with at least 26 short after the Sandy Hook Elementary School shooting. Slowly, more and more violence are arising in schools. Even in Danvers, Massachusetts, a 14-year-old Phillip Chism raped his math teacher and slit her throat. Chasm than dragged her body in the woods. This was all done without a motive. Is there a safe place for students in America? And is there a way to protect these students? Connecticut is only two hours away. How safe are the schools here in Boston? 

Listen to some of the ways schools are taking measures to tighten up security in schools.
