To better understand how students perceive their physical safety in school, ACT surveyed high school students who took the ACT® test as part of a national administration in October 2018. Students were asked about their physical safety in school, including: (1) school climate; (2) the types of safety measures their school currently implements; (3) the types of measures they would prefer to have to make them feel safer; and (4) whether they would favor or oppose specific safety policy measures. The survey results were summarized in "Creating Safe Schools: Examining Student Perceptions of their Physical Safety at School" (ED602027). This brief takes a closer look at one survey question that asked students to explain, in their own words, any additional thoughts they might have on their school's safety. A total of 1,984 students (12% of survey participants) responded to the question. Their comments are categorized into themes and highlight the complexity and nuance of their responses. Students' comments about school safety can inform how to think about local and national solutions on the issue.
