Threat Assessment


Pennsylvania's comprehensive school threat assessment guidelines stem from Act 18 of 2019, which mandates that all school entities establish a Threat Assessment Team. These teams are responsible for identifying, assessing, and managing students exhibiting behaviors that may pose a safety threat to others or themselves.

Threat assessment teams are comprised of multiple staff members at each District building.  RLASD follows Comprehensive School Threat Assessment Guidelines to identify threats and attempt to resolve underlying conflicts.  Staff are responsible for reporting any threat to these team members so that the proper procedures can be followed.
