Interesting distinction you voluntarily offered up here. Are you saying that bc your kid goes to the same school but is essentially segregated by race/soci-economic status via placement in AAP classes apart from the rest of the population, the school is fine for YOUR kid? Or are you saying it’s a good school for all the kids?
Just wondering what motivated you to signal that your child is “in aap” in this context?

She's obviously saying the school is good for learning as long as one is in the AAP classes and bad for learning, aka borderline traumatic, if in the GenPop classes.


Good grief, I was responding to the idea that you can't get a good education there. My kid has four aap periods and four gen ed periods. It's all good. The kids don't distinguish.

She was just responding to this sparky poster. The people so offended by the comment are as ridiculous as the arguments they make.

I agree with you, the kids don't distinguish (this isn't TJ), but that's not the issue at play. The poster you were responding to fairly obviously signaled that education is only good in the AAP classes. So yes the 4 periods are the 'chill' classes and the real work gets done in the other 4. I'm not sure why this is surprising.

No. The issue at play is the school's safety and you are too obsessed with some poster's comment that you are misreading because as she noted it was just responding to a previous poster and nothing that you list. You sound like the troll who brought up Kilmer's reputation to begin with. These are troll like comments. Sick behavior over a thread ensuring kids safety. Anything beyond talking about safety is off topic.

I’m more concerned that there is a troubled young teen who is potentially a ticking time bomb in our community. I really hope he gets the help and support he needs…


This is what I find so fascinating... it's usually the quiet odd kids who are festering and guarding and nursing their garden of grievances who end up shooting up the school, I'm not worried about the kid that kirks out, gets into a fight, and lets his anger out either verbally or physically. It's the quiet ones flying under the radar that I worry about.

I'm a student at Kilmer he wasn't a quiet kid he was well known around the school he was the funniest, coolest and nicest person stop thinking you know stuff when you don't you are clearly yapping about stuff you don't know about i would appreciate it if you would shut up and stop giving people false information.

The kid who got beat up is my friend and he lost his cool. I saw him in the nurses office he was calm and I went up to him and said you good he said yeah. So whoever said what are they doing about bulling you should be ashamed. Because the reason that fight happened is because of bulling. The kid who made the gun threat was the funniest and cool kid I new and that's the same for a lot of other people his parents hit him he told me. The only thing I think about is him. He is really the only person who could make me laugh. He was going through a very hard time in his life and he lost his temper and said "I'm going to bring a gun to school". He is such a chill person. He ran away from home one time and everybody was saying were is he were is he but when he came back everybody was so happy to see he was ok. So if you want to argue ill argue. and incase you didn't know he is expelled and is in jail he was the best person i new but because he was protecting me and my friends from being bullied he is in trouble so stop talking and move on please. GOD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


I am so sorry this happened to your friend and you. Do you have anyone at home and school you can talk to about this? Please do. This is a lot for any middle schooler to handle.

My kid also goes to Kilmer and wasn’t friends with this boy but said he wasn’t a threat and had a rough life. I believe what you are saying.
