Securing a Positive School Climate – What Do the Experts Say?
Beefing up facility security does not address violence prevention. Strengthening a student’s connection to
school and the school community can help reduce violence and bullying. Learn from climate specialists how to measure school climate and use it to improve student outcomes for all members of the school community.
Speakers:
Renee L. Rider, Associate Commissioner, Office of School Operations and Management Services, New York State Education Department
Kathleen R. DeCataldo, Esq., Assistant Commissioner, Office of Student Support Services, New York State Education Department |

From Research to Practice - A School District’s Experience Examining Its School Climate
School Climate surveys help schools assess student, staff and community perceptions and identify specific strengths and areas for improvement. Hear from experienced school personnel about best practices for conducting a successful climate survey, and how the results can improve a school’s climate.
Speakers:
