Phillips of the National Center for Educa-tion Statistics (NCES) and Lawrence Greenfield of the Bureau of Justice Statistics (BJS), for supporting this report.

Outside of NCES and BJS, school crime experts who reviewed the report were John Bishop of Cornell University, Joseph Moone of the Office of Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention, and Joanne Wiggins of the Planning and Evaluation Service of the U. S. Department of Education. Their advice was gratefully accepted. We particularly appreciated their willingness to review the report under very strict time constraints.
