The Kentucky Center for School Safety (KCSS) is excited to announce that the theme for Kentucky Safe Schools Week, September 14-18, is "Strong Roots. Safe Schools". This year's theme highlights the need for ongoing vigilance and proactive steps to keep our schools safe and secure across the Commonwealth.
This week focuses on helping schools strengthen their safety initiatives through targeted activities and discussions. The goal is to raise awareness of various aspects of school safety and empower students, teachers, parents, guardians, and the wider community to take proactive steps to create a safe and nurturing learning environment for everyone.
