[quote=Anonymous]What's happening is that a lot of kids have parents who apparently have neglected to parent them.  Basic lessons like "don't commit battery against other kids, especially those with disabilities" and "don't sexually assault classmates" apparently have been lacking over the last 11-13 years of these kids' lives.  Swanson pulls many from middle to upper middle class families.  This is not a low SES school with most kids crammed into low income housing and parents working minimum wage service jobs throughout the pandemic.  I say that to point out that's often been an excuse for kids' feral behavior this year (also known as blaming it on the brown kids), and I'm saying it doesn't really apply to the overwhelmingly vast majority of Swanson students.

There's still been no real insight into why they took the principal, who many parents liked, and moved her into an Asst Superintendent role for which she is completely unqualified.  I assume it's related, but bad news for APS at the system level.[/quote]
