[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Does anyone know if a community meeting has been called yet?

Anyone from the Northwood PTSA saying or doing anything?[/quote]

No community meeting. PTSA has been quiet [/quote]

Northwood parent here. There is a community meeting scheduled. I’m curious what you think the PTSA should be saying or doing. Would they have any independent information to share? [/quote]

They should be elevating the concerns of parents and teachers and asking MCPS what it plans to do to make their school safer and do more to prevent similar situations from happening in the future.[/quote]

Stop putting out of boundary troubled kids into other schools is the short answer. He's an out-of-bounds SESES kid. Until that entire program is revamped and they can service kids like him properly, nothing will change.[/quote]

Do you have confirmation that the student is in he SESES program? Regardless, if he is a student in the SESES program, he's an MCPS student who receives his services at Northwood. That's not "out of bounds." That's just where he receives his services as a student with an IEP. [/quote]

Also - please be careful about using this incident to characterize SESES kids as "bad kids." There are plenty of kids in SESES programs who do not bring guns to school and are working hard despite a diagnosis that impacts their mental health.[/quote]
