In the United States of America, the national Center for Disease Control and Prevention, CDCP conducted a survey in 2007. The findings of the surveys are startling. In the surveys, some high schools where considered as sample schools and the students represent the US sample students. The exercise was conducted twice in a year and the findings are as follows.

- Students in possession of weapons like guns and knives in school 5.9%

- Attacked and injured or threatened students at least once 7.8%

- Students engaged in physical fights at least once 12.4%

- Students that failed to go to school in fear of attacks 5.5%
