“In the last decade, schools nationally have seen marked declines in campus violence — according to students themselves. In 2022, students ages 12 to 18 reported that they were the victims of violence at school at a rate of 15.6 incidents per 1,000 students.

In fact, the federal data suggest that 2022 was the safest year for students in the last decade. Leading up to the pandemic, in 2018, the nation’s students were the victims of violence at school at a rate of 24 per 1,000 students.”
