N2  - To date, the fear of victimization of school personnel outside the school setting has not been extensively studied. Using the lifestyles-routine activities theoretical approach, this exploratory study investigated whether school personnel have concerns of being victimized by current/former students and parents/guardians. Using self-report data from a Midwestern rural school district, this study found that in most instances school personnel have a low fear of victimization and subsequently do not engage in personal avoidance activities in particular social settings, with the exception of a small number of males who reported avoiding current and former students in restaurants. Furthermore, the majority of school personnel did not report the use of personal protection measures or concerns related to the safety of their children and/or significant others or spouses. An agenda for future research is discussed.<p />
