[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why would kids from another high school want to go a game. They have their own games to attend. A possible exception is people dating across schools - maybe there is an exception for that (I know my DC's school requires permission for kids from other schools to attend prom/homecoming as a date). And agree that kids 13 and under (middle schoolers) should not just be dropped off at event without some adult supervision. It really doesn't seem to be unreasonable at all.[/quote]

I’m a lifelong county resident who attended a private girls school.

Back in the day, we went to football games at lots of different schools. The games were community events.

I think limiting attendance to students is a sad commentary on the violence mcps must grapple with thanks to students and young adults who are looking for trouble and apt to act out violently.

My kids are in mcps, and I’m appalled by the lack of commonsense and aggressive behavior by some students.

I’m a firm believer that you can’t put the genie back in the bottle once communities have devolved to a place where aggression and violence are typical at schools.

Sad. [/quote]
