ACPS - Minnie Howard Fight and activity at Bradlee shopping

[Anonymous]

Does anyone know the details of the two incidents on Wednesday afternoon? The Minnie Howard fight at 1pm and then the 60plus kids that were gathering at Bradlee after 4? APD had all units respond.

Minnie Howard is the bathroom rape school. The one that ACPS and the City Council and Mayor actively covered up from parents. A fight is nothing!

My teen, who was there at California Smoothie, told me the fight at Bradlee was between two girls in the parking lot of McDonalds. About 50 kids there.

Was it a planned gang fight like the one when the ACHS student got stabbed and murdered?

More violence at Minnie Howard today. Will anyone care?

What happened today? It was all my neighbors of older kids were discussing. ACPS needs a real alternative school run by the juvenile court system with law enforcement juvenile officers and social workers and alternative high school teachers to address. The police scanner was upsetting as were the videos circulating. Not a productive learning environment and no teachers should have to be in this situation

What's the link to the police scanner? Here is the article: https://www.alxnow.com/2022/12/05/police-called-after-altercations-at-alexandria-city-high-school/?mc_cid=64a17793b9&mc_eid=cb1b4ebba4&fbclid=IwAR1js87iHOzFKibbdO4OarCCwNKzHhC9vtt1MGedL8iSwivvRdLxS8Z9BFk&mibextid=Zxz2cZ

the many videos are awful and the fight appears to have gotten more intense when an adult showed up to break it up. Is it true a teacher or administrator was knocked out?

Link the videos here please.

An administrator was knocked unconscious and required medical attention. This is out of control.

Why do some people in the community, usually white women who send their kids to ACPS and then private school, make comments about other parents being "white supremecists" or "racists" if they ask about the facts of what happened, post news articles, or post on online forums? So many people "liked" a neighbor's post that told people not to talk or discuss or ask questions of ACPS and "let the leaders take care of it". Okay, well what our kids are telling us contradict what was communicated by ACPS. What I found out was that an administrator was seriously injured and required medical attention. Some friends' kids said that people involved were not even ACPS students. Rumors are that some were adults and some had DC drivers' licenses when arrested. So much for ACPS checking student IDs. I am really disturbed that people think that it is anti-immigrant, racist, or white supremecist behavior to wonder about safety issues at your own child's school, to ask questions about what your own child reported to his/her/their parents, etc. This is what infuriates me about ACPS.

You also can’t believe everything your kids hear! This is a lot of unconfirmed rumor you’re posting her regarding injuries and DC adults being involved. APD has stated publicly there were no reported injuries. The issues should be discussed and addressed, but I would urge caution about posting unconfirmed facts spread by students.

The APD statement was very precise. It was reflecting what was reported to APD. That being said, I have no way to know what is being posted here is true or not. Why is ACPS not providing more information to reassure their population and the public at large?

This is not true. He just fell on the floor. He wasn’t injured.I think someone misheard “knocked down” as “knocked out” and the rumor spread from there.

Your kids told you a lot of BS rumors. Don’t believe anything that your child didn’t witness WITH THEIR OWN EYES. The rest of what you hear has a very high likelihood of being misinformation or disinformation via social media.
