School Safety and Discipline Report
| To: | Superintendents and Charter School Leaders |
| From: | David P. Driscoll, Commissioner of Education |
| Date: | March 5, 2004 |
The School Safety and Discipline Report (SSDR) is available for districts and schools to complete. This two-part report collects information regarding drug and violence related incidents and disciplinary actions occurring during the 2003-2004 school year as required under state and federal regulations. The incident form must be completed each time a violence or drug related incident occurs on school property. The discipline form must be completed each time a student is suspended for a violence or drug related incident, or is excluded for more than 10 school days, regardless of the reason. In addition, the discipline form must be completed each time a student with disabilities is suspended or removed to an alternative setting, regardless of the reason. A notification that this form would be available during the school year was in the October 6, 2003 Commissioner's Update .
The application is available through the Department's security portal at: www4.doemass.org. In order to access the form an individual must have the SSDR security role in Directory Administration. Several documents are available on the website to assist in reporting this information. If you need assistance please contact Data Collection at 781-338-3282 (DATA) or data@doe.mass.edu.
