[quote=Anonymous]OP, if you look at MCPS safety stats as mentioned above, you will see that in the 2009-2010 school year there were 47 incidents of fighting and 20 thefts in the entire year, in a school of almost 2700 students. That's a per capita rate of fighting of .017%. I hardly think this is an issue of "the safety of our children." By comparison, Churchill had a much lower rate of "fighting" incidents. But Churchill has 2 "arson, fire, explosive" incidents, 9 "attack" incidents, and 1 "weapon" incident. Blair had no "arson/fire/explosives," 19 "attack" and 1 weapon incident. Keeping in mind that Churchill has 2085 students (over 600 fewer than Blair), these numbers seem pretty comparable. I hope this will help you put things into perspective. Your child will not be in danger. [/quote]
