School Violence
School violence is a worldwide epidemic that terrorizes many innocent victims each year. Violence has been prominent in schools for as long as anyone can remember, but recently, violence has taken on a more severe and increasingly dangerous role in schools around the world. The classic situation of bullying and teasing in schools is no longer the concern of parents, teachers, and students. Instead, people are now forced to worry about school shootings and various weapons being carried around in schools.

There are occurrences of school violence across the globe that are just as severe as the Columbine massacre in Colorado.
