School violence is a growing area of concern for school nurses across the nation. Recent national data and a compilation of risk factors for youth violence and school shootings are presented as a general guide to identifying students who may be in need of assistance. The nurse’s role in multidisciplinary planning and developing violence prevention strategies in the school and the community are examined.
