BJS produced Incidence of Victimization at School and Away From School, an indicator that is now included in the 2022 Condition of Education. The Condition of Education is a report produced by the National Center for Education Statistics (NCES), Institute of Education Sciences, in the Department of Education.
The Condition of Education contains key indicators on the condition of education in the United States from prekindergarten through postsecondary, as well as labor force outcomes and international comparisons, and is published through the Condition of Education Indicator System website. Eight indicators use data collected by BJS through the National Crime Victimization Survey and School Crime Supplement, including Incidence of Victimization at School and Away From School, which was updated this year with data through 2020. Following this release, the BJS and NCES regular joint publication titled Report on Indicators of School Crime and Safety: 2021 will be published in July 2022.
Incidence of Victimization at School and Away From School is posted on the BJS.gov website and links to the full Condition of Education report on the NCES website.
The Bureau of Justice Statistics of the U.S. Department of Justice is the principal federal agency responsible for collecting, analyzing, and disseminating reliable statistics on crime and criminal justice in the United States. Doris J. James is the acting director.
