[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]BCC parent here. The piece is written by a BCC teacher. I'm not surprised by his allegation; obviously *someone* from the school would have come unless they were specifically told not to.

And I'm in the minority here, but I think the parent witch hunt [b]against the principal[/b] is absurd. How is the principal of a school with 2200 kids going to prevent a fight from happening in a park a few blocks away during school hours? Should he be personally hunting down every kid who is absent to make sure they're not playing Jets and Sharks in the park? How is any administrator responsible for the fact that some half-wit brought an AirSoft gun in his backpack to show off?

Obviously there are real problems that need real solutions. But if you think that pushing out the principal is the answer, take a look at the rest of MCPS.[/quote]

He must be tired of being tired, too. Not that it matters at this point but has anyone listened to any call(s) to police leading up to the decision to lockdown after an incident at a nearby park? Apparently MCPD suggests or doesn't suggest a lockdown and ultimately Principal of a school makes the decision to lockdown. What was MCPD's suggestion that day? If Principal hadn't called a lockdown that day, would parents be tearing him about not making that call? No one wins and no one is feeling better after repeated lockdowns.

Btw, was it ever reported which schools the other kids who showed up at the park attend? It's highly unlikely they were OLOL students. But why were only BCC students called out?  Do you know if others were from an area HS, MS or from elsewhere?[/quote]
