Safe Halls' Mission
Safe Halls Project was founded, June 13, 2014 by parents with the desire to re-shape the school safety conversation. We foster open dialogue in New York school communities to contribute to school safety.
Our Vision
To inspire practices that promote transparency in our schools. Work with our school communities to change the dynamics in some classrooms and open up the conversation among the people who matter most, the students.
Who We Are
We are a 501 (c)(3) non-profit organization defined under the Internal Revenue Code 170(b)(1)(A)(vi). The organization was founded by parents who believed in exploring alternatives to school safety in New York City and surrounding areas. Without the use of extra guards or metal detectors, we encourage students and teachers to speak more on school safety. To report safety concerns and promote positive change to their learning environment.
Academic performance is related to emotional and physical safety. School safety is a nonstop practice with many parts and if not enhanced, developed and applied, school communities fall behind.
