How are they not? Multiple articles on Washington Post's site, and Fox5 DC. Also WJLA.

If you google, you can find many news about this. We have a lot discussion, but can all this discussions turn into effective actions to protect our children?

I'd like effective actions to protect all children, not just "our children". That's what you meant, right?

Insanity. Period.

No. Most of that is required (not English proficiency). Here's the requirements directly from their website:
http://www.montgomeryschoolsmd.org/info/enroll/

Proof of residency isn't required for homeless students though.

By federal law. The McKinney-Vento Homeless Assistance Act.

So with a little lying, anyone can go to any public school they want to attend?

Is MSNBC or CNN considered MSM?

We have found that to be the case! At our ES we have several families who attend using a false address. It must be pretty easy to do.

This person was in 9th grade in name only. He wasn't in your kids's algebra or history class, because he didn't have the English proficiency. Probably 90% of his classes were ESL classes with other ESL kids of varying ages.

Yes, 18 year olds do come into contact with 14 years olds in high school, like between classes, and during other classes that are not grade-specific (German class, shop class, etc). Probably 20% of students at Rockville HS are currently 18 -- lots of 12th graders are easily 18 already.

I also don't mind if 18 year olds are IN CLASS with 14 year olds since there is a teacher there supervising at all time. That's probably the safest place to be.

What I am furious about is how students are walking the empty halls during class, and there is no monitoring and no one to hear the screams of an innocent victim. How did that happen?

Do you really think these rapists were well-behaved students or is there a strong possibility they were sexually harassing the 14 year old girls in their 9th grade ESL classes? Just because your kids aren't ESL doesn't mean 14 year old immigrant girls should have to put up with having 18 to 20 year olds in their class. There is a strong possibility that the 14 year victim might be an ESL immigrant from a non-Spanish speaking country since she didn't understand what the rapists were saying but they spoke to her in the hallway. So don't disregard the safety of the young immigrant teenage girls because "he wasn't in your kid's algebra or history class". These girls are someone's kid and deserve to be safe. If you have no chance of graduating by 21 then you shouldn't be in a regular high school. This would exclude all freshman ages 17 and above.
