[i]In early November, the normally quiet library at Charlottesville High School turned loud and violent with students – many of them girls – pulling hair and taking swings. Two weeks later, a series of fights erupted, with staff and police coming in to break-up those brawls. (...)
In response to the turmoil, Principal Rashaad Pitt resigned. So many teachers called in sick the next day that classes were canceled. As one explained, ‘Many of us are feeling depleted and exhausted by attempting to teach in this environment. I will be out tomorrow to recover.” (...)
The school board has announced three closed-door disciplinary hearings next week, and this Thursday the district will hold a listening session for community members to explore possible solutions. Already, the district is recruiting additional substitute teachers and volunteers to support teachers and promote better security in the hallways and at school entrances.[/i]

Does anybody know more?
