]]> The safe room is the last stage of de-escalation, and only implemented because the student cannot be kept safe by a less restrictive means. It is only used, then, when a student is unsafe and for only the amount of time it takes to achieve a safe state with that student.

]]> The purpose of a School Risk Assessment is to evaluate the threat to student and staff safety posed by the identified student. This assessment is used to help the school department determine appropriate action upon the student’s return to school.
