The purpose of this study is to find characteristics of the law-related education(LRE) programs for school violence prevention and to identify implications of giving to the LRE programs for school violence prevention in Korea. In order to achieve the purpose of this study, I started analyzing contexts of the LRE programs for school violence prevention in the United States. Finally, I found useful characteristics and directions of good LRE programs for school violence prevention. The major results from this study are as follows. First, knowledges, skills, and values/attitudes in the LRE curriculum for school violence prevention should be not abstract, but concrete. Second, successful conditions for school violence prevention should be reflected in the contents and methods of the LRE program for school violence prevention. Third, we should evaluate the impact of current LRE programs on students, and examine whether they have successful conditions for school violence prevention. Fourth, the LRE programs for school violence prevention should be developed for the needs of the young people in diverse settings. Fifth, we should prepare the LRE dissemination program while developing the LRE programfor school violence prevention.
