We’re not at Banneker or Loiderman, but I have a kid at another MCPS MS. There are regularly fights and sometimes they spill over into the neighborhood areas/stores.

The political climate is currently anti-police, so our police department is under funded. Our political leaders chose to remove SROs from schools and embrace restorative justice.

Kids learn early that they can get away with horrible behavior and that nobody cares. Nobody will administer consequences.

MS fights are as old as time.
If they do not happen on school grounds the school has nothing to do with it.

Unless your kid goes there you’d have no clue it’s even happening…..

And this, my people, is the MCPS way. If they can get away with hiding the crap that goes on at their schools, they will. They will suppress footage, hide behind "privacy" laws and fail to escalate violence and drug offenses to protect themselves and the kids wreaking havoc on the school. This is the system we have.

No one is hiding anything.

Just stop with the fear mongering.

MS fights have always happened don't be absurd.

This post helps no one.

You want to say this about MCPS with a straight face after everything that has been reported on?

It sucks but Banneker is no worse tbat any others.
2 Rockville 14 year olds were arrested today riding in a car they had stolen overnight. Skipped school today to drive around in it…. 8th graders. It’s nuts.

That’s a huge exaggeration. This stuff isn’t happening in Bethesda at Pyle or Westland.

Or at Parkland for what’s it’s worth. The admin there are really strong. Not sure about other schools since we only know them.

I don't think this stuff is happening in Bethesda at Pyle or Westland because the admin are strong lmao

Second that. If it’s not happening at Pyle it’s not because there’s strong admin.

Yeah it's like bragging there isn't vaping and knife fights at Hogwarts because of the admin

Kids were getting unalived all the time at hogwarts. Vaping and knife fights would have been the least of its problems

Unalive. They are being killed.

It’s kind of like in 1984 here in Montgomery County. We talk in newspeak.

The 14 year old pulled the knife and cut the 12 year old. The 14 year old gets charged. The 12 year old can’t be. MCPS previously aware of issues between them.”

It gets messier and messier.

If this is true it’s self defense.

There’s a video, they’re actually 2 videos all the kids are sharing. Girl in blue jacket walks into classroom and just started beating on another girl. That girl in self defense stabs at her neck. The poor teacher is trying to split them up.
Hopefully the girl that started it and got stabbed gets charged.

Send this video to the news. Bad publicity is the only way MCPS changes.
