Why are SESIR and Discipline Data Important? Provides data: For needs assessment for grant opportunities For measuring progress of intervention For reporting to advisory councils 2012-13 School Safety and Discipline Data Reporting
4
SESIR Key Features Developed 1995 for school staff Based on criminal code but not identical 23 incident categories reported alcohol, bullying, drug, gang, hate-crime, injury or weapon Each incident may have related elements: alcohol, bullying, drug, gang, hate-crime, injury or weapon 2012-13 School Safety and Discipline Data Reporting
5
SESIR Incidents On school grounds, school transportation, or at off-campus school sponsored events related elements The most serious offense is the primary SESIR incident. Secondary offenses can be reported as one or more “related elements”. 365 days/24 hours Student, Non-Student or Unknown Offenders 2012-13 School Safety and Discipline Data Reporting
6
Level III Disruption On Campus Drug Use/Possession Larceny/Theft Sexual Offenses (Other) Threat/Intimidation Vandalism Other Major Offenses Level II Breaking & Entering/Burglary Drug Sale/Distribution Robbery Trespassing Weapons Possession Level IV – Least Serious Alcohol Bullying Fighting Harassment Sexual Harassment Tobacco Level I - Most Serious Arson Battery Homicide Kidnapping Sexual Battery

SESIR Reporting SESIR incidents are per incident. Report only ONE incident even when there are multiple students involved in the same incident. Discipline actions are per student.

What’s new for 2012-13?
14
Changes & Updates for 2012-13 Updated Incident Definitions/Examples: Battery Larceny/Theft Updated Data Elements: Discipline/Resultant Action Code Zero Tolerance: Expulsions Other Changes: Battery & Sexual Battery must be “Injury-Related” 2012-13 School Safety and Discipline Data Reporting
15
Updated Incident Definitions/Examples: Battery 2012-13 School Safety and Discipline Data Reporting BATTERY (physical attack/harm) The physical use of force or violence by an individual against another. The attack must be serious enough to warrant consulting law enforcement or result in serious bodily harm. (To distinguish from Fighting, report an incident as Battery only when the force or violence is carried out against a person who is not fighting back.) Examples Student hitting another with a heavy object over the head resulting in serious injury. Student jabbing a pen into another's arm resulting in serious injury. Student or other engaging in a mutual physical altercation with another and continuing to hit/beat that person even after that person stops fighting, or is no longer able to fight back resulting in serious injury. Additional Guidelines Note: Battery is a "Violent Incident" and is required to be reported in the related element "Injury-Related".
16
Updated Incident Definitions/Examples: Larceny/Theft 2012-13 School Safety and Discipline Data Reporting LARCENY/THEFT (taking of property from person, building, or a vehicle) The unauthorized taking, carrying, riding away, or concealing the property of another person, including motor vehicle, without threat, violence, or bodily harm. Examples: Student or other embezzling public funds. Student or other stealing an item/items worth $300 or more. Student finding a checkbook, signing owner’s name and making a purchase. Student or other stealing a car or motorcycle. Non-Examples: Student or other borrowing an item without permission. Student or other committing robbery (code as Robbery instead). Student or other stealing an item/items less than $300. Note: The item(s) must total $300 or more in value to report in SESIR. However, it is important for schools to document these types of incidents on their local student discipline referral form.
17
Updated Data Element: Discipline/Resultant Action Code LOCAL USE ONLY CODE D: Districts may record other district-defined disciplinary/resultant actions which cannot be reported using any other code in this element, and may assign them the code D in their local systems. These district-defined disciplinary/ resultant actions should not be included on the Student Discipline/Resultant Action format. This code is to be used only when the action is related to a non-SESIR defined incident. 2012-13 School Safety and Discipline Data Reporting
18
Updated Data Element: Zero Tolerance: Expulsions A code indicating whether or not the student was removed from the school setting for an extended length of time with or without continuing education services due to state or and local zero-tolerance policies. 2012-13 School Safety and Discipline Data Reporting
19
Other Changes: BAT and SXB must be “Injury-Related” 2012-13 School Safety and Discipline Data Reporting A new reject rule has been added to require that Battery and Sexual Battery are coded as Injury-Related. Federal specifications categorize violent incidents as “serious enough to warrant calling the police or security or when serious bodily harm occurs.” Law enforcement consultation is already required for these violent incidents.

What Does Accurate SESIR and Discipline Data Depend On? Knowledge of SESIR Definitions Software System design to optimize accuracy Schools Data Review/Correction Process to Update OSS to AP or Expulsion Process for Entering Incidents & Disciplinary Actions Student Referral Form Design 2012-13 School Safety and Discipline Data Reporting
23
Some Problems with 2010-11 Data 2012-13 School Safety and Discipline Data Reporting Not all level I incidents were reported to Law Enforcement Many districts reported no Injury-Related and/or no Bullying-Related incidents Incidents involving staff, teachers, and administrators were not reported in SESIR Some districts had a low percentage of schools reporting incidents (less than 50%) Code confusion (Expulsion vs. Alt. Placement)
24
Verifying District SESIR Data District data are compared against: Incidents reported in the media Incidents reported to DOE’s Professional Practices Information received by DOE parent liaisons Other sources 2012-13 School Safety and Discipline Data Reporting
25
Online Training Greatest barrier to accurate data was identified as lack of knowledge of SESIR definitions and reporting process by school administrators. Online SESIR Training is at: www.SESIR.org
