[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]BCC could have handled it better. I appreciated the Remind updates but my kid was told to hide in a closet for over 2 hours which seems ridiculous if there was no threat inside the building. No way to reach him so he had no idea what was going on for a very long time. [/quote]

The fear was that the suspect carrying the weapon might be a BCC student looking to hide from police by returning to the building, WITH the gun. Police did not want to get into a gun fight in a building full of kids. They took some time to look at all the cameras and determine that kids could be dismissed without too much risk.

I think that was the right decision.

A gun fight might have been bad.  Not having the N word printed 1000x bad or anything, but certainly would have been close.  I shudder to think how bad this situation could have been considering one of these students might have used the N word in writing in addition to using it verbally.

This is sarcasm, but it really highlights the core values of MCPS leadership.[/quote]
