Charles McKinstry presents a review of school liability for negligence. Discussed are elements of negligence, standards of care, duty, negligent supervision, proximate cause, playground supervision, contributory negligence defense, dangerous activities, violence, and sexual molestation. McKinstry emphasizes that negligence is the primary reason schools are sued, and encourages Adventist educators to be well aware of developments in this area.
