In response to the response above regarding seat belts, Even if there was a police doing seat belt duty, Do you think that a young and "invincible" kid is going to keep it on in the company of his "buddies" I don't think so. Teaching seat belt use, starts at home.
My improvements would be to return to the Three "R's", I would teach reading with phonics, and I would being back etiquette, and ethics.
I would have these two subjects taught all four years of high school as mandatory, with an emphasis on being polite for no reason.
For students that write papers, I would check and strictly enforce plagiarism and copy write laws, but not make them scan their writings into a "database" that takes away their intellectual property rights.

---I would have the security guard / police officer stand at the exit of the campus and make sure everyone in every car that leaves has their seat belt fastened. That is where the lives would be saved; forget the school metal detectors. Each year 40,000 people die in car crashes, and many more are injured. That is eight Columbine High Schools a day, day after day after day. It is car crashes that are killing people, not the high school killers, and no one cares. The big media attention is on the extremely few killed by high school killers, not the many, many of them students, killed in car crashes. ---Jim
