They had the same concerns that they did back at the end of the school year last year...they were worried about retaliation from gangs based on what happened in Wednesday's fight (seeking revenge, finishing what they started, new beefs, whatever). My kid said it was north side vs west side???? |
Maybe open your eyes. |
Wow what a mess. Cancelling school for two days so kids can go have fights in the streets or at the mall? What a great way to pass the buck. I hope the security guards sue the school. Litigation may be the last hope for accountability for all the students who have lost their school due to these reckless misguided “equity” experiments. If a kid has a violent criminal history they don’t belong in mainstream school period. It infringes on the right gets of every other kid in the school. Why hasn’t the mayor commented on this? Guess he’s done. |
This is from 2020. Looks like still a lot of burying their heads in the sand 4 years later. |
Has anyone heard how the injured security guard and staff are doing? So awful. |
News at 11. Rich kids drink too much and do drugs. Bad things ensue. Parents enable. Really, start your own thread or just wait for one to pop up that covers this very much discussed topic and join in. |
They're still going to be people who exist in the world with you, and they're not just going to disappear. So even if you don't care about others, you are better off if they are able to be productive members of society in some sense so that you are not supporting them in prison or having negative interactions with them in life. |
You are correct at this moment in time, I care more about the majority of kids than these few kids. Why don't you? I don't want any of them to disappear. I want them out of my kids' school and I don't think that's too much to ask. It's delusional to think some program is going to turn it all around for them in later teenage years. These are complex, intractable problems and time to admit this way of (not) dealing with them is a massive failure. Move on and come up with a new social experiment. |
It’s long past time for ACPS to create an alternative high school. This model is not manageable or sustainable. |
There is an alternative school, it's called juvenile detention, we need to use that option and stop coddling these criminals |
If there are students that are that out of hand, they need to be expelled. It's ridiculous to close a school because you are afraid of the students |
A solution of an alternative high school that can support more than 11 kids would resolve both of our concerns. That's not "a new social experiment," but rather, basic common sense that other districts are already doing. |
Wakefield is down the street and has a fraction of the issues of ACHS |
Doesnt sound like you've ever been in a school like this. |
"In the videos one assailant is wearing a Canada Goose jacket." what does that mean? |
