[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]SCMS sent home a note tonight that four kids consumed edibles at school today and had to be taken to the hospital. This is on top of numerous reports of multiple fights, some sounding serious (one girls hair being torn out after being pushed down the stairs, another involving kids hiding under desks to avoid a big fight in classroom). Is this normal? Administrators really don't seem to have control over the student population. Administrators dismissed it as "roughhousing" at the last principal coffee but my kid comes home with regular reports of kids beating each other up, being really disruptive in class, and terrible bus behavior. We just don't know how much of this is "normal" for middle school and how much of this is a failure of the admin to get the resources needed to try to create some order.[/quote] SC parent. In my experience, the administration at SC is good, communicative, and on top of things. Posts on the school listserv or DCUM surmising what has happened are not helpful. It's as bad as the kids spreading rumors. Set up a meeting with administration, as instructed. Get a sense directly for what is happening. Offer to work with staff on solutions. And FWIW, I suspect we're going to see more kids consuming edibles given the change in laws. Easy to get them from parents.[/quote]
