The purpose of this study was to investigate the relationships between school safety and school engagement. The population is taken from students of the public high school of Rey, Tehran. The total numbers of the participants are 322 which were selected by the random cluster sampling method. School safety was measured using the Revised School safety Questionnaire (Skiba, Simmons, Peterson& Forde, 2006). School engagement was measured using the Revised School engagement Scale (Wang, Willett & Eccles 2011). The SPSS 18 and STATGRAPHICS 5.1 were used to conduct a canonical correlation analysis. Results from the canonical correlation model revealed that there is 3 significant set between school safety and school engagement. According to the first set, school climate and learning safety support shared 0/43 of the variance with self-regulated learning, belonging to school and using cognitive strategy .According to the second set, school climate, absence of delinquency, personal safety, and absence of incivility support shared 0/10 of the variance with self-regulated learning, belonging to school, using cognitive strategy, and passion to learn. According to the third set, school climate, absence of delinquency, connection, learning safety support shared 0.05 of the variance with self-regulated learning, belonging to school, and using cognitive strategy. In sum, in schools which we can see more safety, we can see more engagement. This result can be explained through Lewin's Field Theory, ecological perspective of Brenner, and Maslow's hierarchy of needs.
