Not sure but several schools had pep rallies today and kids took advantage by skipping and breaking into other schools

Was it true that one of the Asst Principal slipped on it ? Hope they are okay too and no students were injured.

My kid did not see that but he just showed me a shot from a video circulating online - it does appear that the Asst Principal slipped on the weave.

Who took video and is posting it online and why are they posting it online?

Was it held in a gym or outside on school's sports field?

In the football field

My daughter in fact goes to BCC and it did happen. Apparently a security guard slipped on the wig while trying to separate the two girls. It’s such a shame that this is happening in this day and age

Unless the kid has cancer what kids parents let them wear a wig. You’re jacking their brain up before it even develops. Even if she has short gnarly hair, teaching her some standard she’ll never reach is needed for contort isn’t a good look.

When these reports get out teachers get fired be corrupt admin who don't like the bad publicity.

How do I comfort her and assure her that she’s safe? (I know that this sounds INSANE but if your child goes to B-CC, they’ll confirm it’s true!)

Can she avoid fighting?

Do you know anything about weaves? Why don't you do some research first.

I’m one of the posters that mentioned kids skipping the pep rally and going to other schools Friday afternoons. The pep rally was on the football field. Not only do these kids sneak out of their school, but they enter other schools just by knocking on a door or texting a friend to meet them at a door.

Which students? Did schools send out a letter if that many students are going to other schools and "just knocking on a door..."?

Well known for years that students visit other schools during the day. The Council made Ride On buses free for kids. Easy access.

Wonder to what extent a fight was picked for performative social media video purposes.... This is really horrible for the kid whose weave was pulled off.

One more good reason to ban phones in school.

My kids use the free rideon buses to go to the library or meet friends at restaurants or even go to school. How lame is it to ditch school and just go to another school. If you are ditching school, at least do something fun! Why on earth would these kids want to go to a different schools pep rally? Most kids o know hate pep rallies generally so it’s not like it’s some big draw.
