[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]In part because the legal consequences are not spelled out to them clearly. At no point did MCPS ever broadcast what they could do for punishment. Every Principal needs to say it out loud during morning announcements. The MCPS email I received today did not spell it out either - it needs to, so parents can remind their kids. 
And for the kids old enough (13 and up), MCPS needs to remind them of legal consequences. The police chief needs to say it out loud on the news so parents repeat it to their kids.

Vagueness is the enduring problem with MCPS. For years, my kids have had "wellness" and "mental health" assemblies and lectures, which they tell me are a complete waste of time, because nothing specific is ever said, to help themselves or others. It's so vague as to be entirely useless. Same for violent threats. Kids are practical people - if they don't know what the punishment is, more will engage in the behavior.

So, mcps is to blame for kids thinking it’s funny to call in bimba threats? [/quote]

It's mostly McKnights fault.[/quote]
