| This is the third in 10 days. Getting really tiring. I hope MCPD catches those who are responsible for this and charges them with a serious crime. |
| FWIW when I was a kid back in the 80s I don't think a week went by without some kid pulling the fire alarm to get out of classes, but sure I agree it's annoying... |
| How do you know? |
| How are kids safe in their classrooms when there's a threat? |
Not sure about the point of this question..... I am a parent who has received 3 emails from the school / MCPS in the past 10 days. |
| I have two Blair students; they are spending their lunch period in their third period classrooms. It's infuriating the this keeps happening, and very stressful for my 9th grader who is still adjusting to high school. MCPS needs to track down and punish the offenders. |
In the 90s, it was bomb threats. My middle school had them every couple weeks for months. People freaked out after Columbine and that mostly put an end to it, but I'm not surprised it's back. |
YES. These kids need to realize this is not a game they want to play. It's sickening. |
+1 I hope they catch them soon too because that is so disruptive and in today’s environment you don’t know if it’s fake. In the 90s when I went to school you’re pretty sure it was fake. It’s very stressful now because especially with everything going on in the world that could be real. |
Or maybe MCPD even since it's their job whereas MCPS job is to not investigate crime but educate children |
Blair parent who did not receive an email until after I saw this thread. |
Either you are exaggerating or you attended an extremely low end school. |
I suggest you subscribe to the MoCo show on twitter, Facebook or instagram because they break news faster than what MCPS puts out. They are on top of it. |
MCPS and the BOE do not want MCPD in our schools. Voters in Montgomery County do not want police in schools. We have made our voices heard loud in clear. |
Np and 1) it’s true there were always fire alarms and bomb threats in the 80s and 90s. It felt constant. 2) You sound really stupid trying to make this about class and status. |
