93 percent of earliest adopters (9+ years ago) perceive their teams as somewhat or very effective
Sample (column N undeterminable) · Earliest adopters (BTAM team in place 9+ years)
Looking at the earliest adopters (those schools that adopted BTAM teams nine or more years ago), 93 percent perceive that their BTAM teams are at the point where they are somewhat or very effective at maintaining school safety.
Only 23 percent of earliest adopters reached effectiveness within the first school year
Sample (column N undeterminable) · Earliest adopters (BTAM team in place 9+ years)
Only 23 percent of these earliest adopters report that they had reached effectiveness within the first school year.
Within two school years, most early adopters felt teams were somewhat or very effective
Within two school years, most early adopters said they feel that their BTAM teams were somewhat or very effective at main-

Figure 3.2 survey questions on effectiveness, time in place, and program use (n = 441)
This figure depicts response data from the following survey questions: “How effective do you believe this BTAM team is at maintaining school safety?” “Approximately how many school years has this BTAM team been in place?” and “How long has your school used [AUTOFILL] program?” (n = 441).
Only principals with a BTAM team who were present at initial implementation saw the question
Only those who said their school has a school- or district-level BTAM team and said they were around for the initial implementation of the BTAM program saw this question.
Within four school years, three-quarters of early adopters felt they had reached effectiveness
Sample (column N undeterminable) · Earliest adopters (BTAM team in place 9+ years)
taining school safety; within four school years, three-quarters said they feel they have reached effectiveness.
12 percent of early-adopter principals said team was effective but were not sure how long it took
Sample (column N undeterminable) · Earliest adopters (BTAM team in place 9+ years)
Among these early adopters, 12 percent of principals said they feel that their schools had reached the point where the BTAM team was somewhat or very effective at maintaining school safety but were not sure how long it took the team to get there.
For recent adopters, enough time may not have passed to overcome initial challenges
For schools that adopted BTAM more recently, enough time may not have passed yet for schools to overcome any initial implementation challenges such that their teams are functioning effectively.
60 percent of newest adopters perceive their teams as somewhat or very effective
Sample (column N undeterminable) · New adopters
Among the newest adopters, 60 percent of principals perceive that their BTAM teams have become somewhat or very effective at maintaining school safety.
Among remaining newest adopters, 15 percent feel teams not effective and 25 percent were not sure
Sample (column N undeterminable) · New adopters
Among the balance, 15 percent feel their teams are not currently effective, and 25 percent were not sure whether their BTAM teams were effective.
Authors examined time to perceived effectiveness based on when BTAM program was implemented
We also examined how long it took for principals to perceive that their schools’ BTAM teams were effective based on when their BTAM program was implemented.
