[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Someone needs to make some kind of MCPS zero tolerance policy for vaping, weapons, fighting, horrible behavior, etc. Zero tolerance, kid is expelled.

Don't know if it's possible, but the current status of so much is beyond insane and completely unacceptable[/quote]

I don't think that's likely, but I do strongly believe in more utilization for alternative placements for kids who exhibit such dangerous behaviors. We need a Mark Twain-style alternative school to put such children. And they can return to their home schools if they complete a successful rehabilitation and restorative plan or treatment.[/quote]
We have an Alternative School…it is called Blair G. Ewing. While it separates offenders from the general ed schools, it generally has poor outcomes.[/quote]

No doubt, but there are two separate questions:

1. Can it be improved
2. Is it better than other existin options [/quote]
It could be a model program, but it lacks strong building-level and central-level leadership and commitment. [/quote]
