Why does this stuff keep happening at Churchill?


Because of the increased amount of scrutiny on affluent white kids. High school kids making fun of each other to included poking at stereotypes has always happened. How many times a day do you think the N word is throw around at Kennedy or Blair. It isn’t white kids so it isn’t as big a deal and those kids get eye rolls or talkings to about respect. When white kids do it the police are called and admin make a production least they be viewed as complicit or downplaying it. That said it is the world we live in and white kids need to know they are on a shorter leash with certain subjects.

And why not? Affluent white kids seem to have gotten away with a lot more in the past.

Kind of like how we now have an opioid crisis because so many middle class white people are dying from it, but when lots of poor blacks were dying from crack cocaine or even opioids, there didn't seem to be much of a crisis; or like when HIV was a gay man's disease and so it wasn't considered a crisis, but once it started to hit straight white people, then it became a crisis.

So, yes, sh1t like this has been going on at other schools, but now that it's hit the wealthier white enclave, all of a sudden there's more attention paid to it.

I think part of it is also that society doesn't expect much from poor people, but they expect better behavior from more "educated" wealthy people.


A simpler explanation is that racism is rampant at the segregated schools.

Dumb people like things dumbed down, I get it. But seriously there are black people at Churchill. I suspect you should buy a dictionary and look up the world

True dat, and they will still get away with plenty going forward just not that. Yet most will still land cushy in society despite this.

Aw, don't burst their bubble. (This poster is laser focused on a just mission while headed down the wrong road.) Wait until they find out some people who go there are wealthy while others are less affluent. Wait until they find out the change of school assignment form can be filled out and submitted by everyone.

It's a segregated school compared to the rest of the county and it's no surprise they have this neverending array racist incidents.

There are only 16% blacks in the county. Are we rationing blacks now? Which school get to give them up? Is a one for one swap for white kids or is there a diminished value credit considering white kids are such problems

Once you sprinkle in those extra white kids which school is going to turn the corner ?

I think the lack of socioeconomic diversity and racial diversity breeds into a lack of understanding, respect, and empathy for peers.

Has Heckert come up with the plan to address problems that she promised at the February 19th PTA meeting?

To those of you who think this N word pass thing is trivial, I have an AA DC at Churchill and other kids have said very vile, racist things. I view the N word pass as childish and ignorant. These other comments are more direct, and when I've mentioned to others at my work, etc. jaws drop. I won't mention them here because the perpetrators could recognize the situations and I don't want to add to the drama.

Don't trivialize the problem by thinking of it as limited to silly passes.
