[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Hi DCUM,

I’m a senior at a high school in the DMV area, and I am currently working on a project about bathroom safety in Montgomery County public schools. As you are probably aware, public schools such as BCC and Richard Montgomery have recently had overdosing and robbing incidents occur in the bathrooms. I am interested to hear the perspectives of you all, the parents, on this issue. Do any of you have children affected by it? I read that MCPS recently established a safety plan–is this plan working? What else do you think could be done to help increase bathroom safety?

Thank you![/quote]

No my kids are not affected by this. Given the size of the county, I'm surprised incidents like this don't happen more frequently, but still extremely rare. Kind of like getting struck by lightning so I'm not worried about it.[/quote]

You are naive.

The bathrooms at Julius West middle school are so scary. Vaping, weed, pill popping, drug deals, bullying, vandalism, and fights.

Doesn’t get better at RM. 3rd floor bathrooms are currently on lockdown [/quote]

Can you provide any hard evidence that the problem is severe or widespread? I mean sure there have been one or two widely publicized events but that doesn't mean much. These seem more like isolated incidents that are being hyped to create hysteria.[/quote]
