What others are saying about this book: Excerpt from the Book's - Foreword "My experiences as Superintendent in three previous cities taught me that I had to hire an exceptional professional to lead the system and restore confidence in our ability to protect students. The Colonel brought all of his expertise, experience and commitment and built an effective, professional force. I am pleased that he has outlined in this book the road to success in one of the most challenging problems public schools face. Cleveland Hammonds, Ed D
and put it in a form that reads like a novel. A copy of this book should be in the professional section of every urban school library and a must read for all urban security divisions.” Reola H. Boyd - Retired Director, Library Services St. Louis Public Schools
engaging book about the professional experiences of a seasoned law enforcement officer. McCrary’s language is fluid, his descriptions are strong, and his instructions are concise and easy to understand. McCrary uses his vast knowledge to lead readers through a variety of challenges they will likely encounter while working with public school security staff, students, faculty, administration, local police officers and the community at large. However, as a lay reader with no experience in security, I enjoyed McCrary’s autobiographical information and his personal stories about his life and his work.” Patricia C.
