SES-1625703 Anthony A. Peguero Virginia Tech As the United States continues to be increasingly immersed in a global competitive market, ensuring the educational progress of all youth, as well as competitive and innovative workforce, contributes to the nation's economic growth and sustainability. Moreover, adult socioeconomic disadvantages and advantages faced can be often traced to youth differential educational experiences, achievement, attainment, and progress. It has become clear that school safety is fundamental for facilitating learning and positive educational outcomes for youth and increasing school security measures as well as stringent control practices have become a common as an approach towards school safety. But, there is growing scrutiny that school surveillance and security practices may be conditioning youth to interpret surveillance, law enforcement presence, and juvenile and criminal justice system interventions as a "normal" part of the school learning environment or experience for all youth. Some researchers denote that harsh or stringent school safety or social control policies are having detrimental educational consequences for marginalized youth, such as racial and ethnic minority youth and the children of immigrants. Considering that it is projected that the youth population will become mostly compromised of racial and ethnic minorities as well as one in three youth will have at least one immigrant parent, understanding the relationship between school safety, security, and educational progress for the fastest growing segments of the United States youth population is imperative. Of course, safety is paramount for learning and educational outcomes for all youth. There is some disagreement, however, if this current approach of increased social control within schools is ensuring educational progress or success, especially for marginalized and vulnerable youth. Thus, this research will draw from three nationally representative data (School Survey on Crime, Safety and Educational Longitudinal Study of 2002, and Common Core Data) as well as incorporate multilevel statistical analyses in order to further our knowledge about the relationship between school safety and educational progress by exploring two broad research questions. First, how are school safety and security policies influencing school-level educational progress as well as the implications for racial, ethnic, and immigration educational inequalities? Second, how are school safety and security policies influencing student-level educational progress, especially for racial and ethnic minority youth and the children of immigrants? Although security measures and control practices have become ubiquitous within schools, there is limited knowledge about how securing schools is contributing to educational progress and success, in particular for racial and ethnic minority youth and the children of immigrants. This proposed research seeks to contribute to developing knowledge about safety, security, and educational progress within the United States school system.

Peguero弗吉尼亚理工大学随着美国继续越来越多地沉浸在全球竞争的市场中，确保所有年轻人的教育进步，以及有竞争力和创新的劳动力，有助于国家的经济增长和可持续发展。此外，成年人面临的社会经济劣势和优势往往可以追溯到青年不同的教育经历、成就、成就和进步。很明显，学校安全对于促进青少年的学习和取得积极的教育成果至关重要，增加学校保安措施和严格的控制措施已成为一种普遍的学校安全方法。但是，越来越多的人注意到，学校的监视和安全措施可能使青少年习惯于将监视、执法人员的存在以及少年和刑事司法系统的干预视为学校学习环境或所有青少年经历的“正常”部分。一些研究人员指出，严厉或严格的学校安全或社会控制政策对边缘化青年，如种族和少数民族青年和移民子女产生了有害的教育后果。考虑到预计青年人口将主要受到种族和少数民族的影响，以及三分之一的青年将至少有一位移民父母，了解美国青年人口中增长最快的部分的学校安全，保障和教育进步之间的关系是必要的。当然，安全对所有青少年的学习和教育成果至关重要。然而，目前这种加强学校内部社会控制的方法是否能确保教育进步或成功，特别是对边缘化和弱势青年而言，存在一些分歧。因此，本研究将借鉴三个具有全国代表性的数据（2002年学校犯罪调查、安全和教育纵向研究和共同核心数据），并结合多层次统计分析，通过探索两个广泛的研究问题，进一步了解学校安全和教育进步之间的关系。首先，学校安全和安保政策如何影响学校层面的教育进步，以及对种族、民族和移民教育不平等的影响？其次，学校安全和安保政策如何影响学生水平的教育进步，特别是对少数民族青年和移民子女的影响？虽然安全措施和控制措施已在学校中无处不在，但人们对学校安全如何促进教育进步和成功，特别是对种族和少数民族青年和移民子女的教育进步和成功的认识有限。这项拟议的研究旨在促进美国学校系统内发展有关安全、保障和教育进步的知识。
