[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The game had a lot of police presence and security precautions. How exactly is MCPS supposed to control what kids do off-sight, after the game? [/quote]

The fights and controlling the fights after the game is the explicit job of MCPD. But the education and behavioral adjustments and educations that is supposed to PREVENT these incidents from happening is squarely in the realm of MCPS, which purports to do so with its SEL lessons and Restorative Justices practices. I'm calling into question how those RJ practices and SEL lessons are working if year after year, student behavior does not change.[/quote]

Actually the “education and behavioral adjustments and educations that is supposed to PREVENT these incidents” is squarely in the realm of Parents and Community.  Schools are making up the deficit.[/quote]

Then why is the school demanding and pouring millions into mental health resources and stood up a whole department for "STUDENT WELLBEING" and crowing about how amazing their Restorative Justices practices are?

The school system cannot suck up the resources and try to take credit when things go good and then blame shift to parents when things go bad. Schools are in or aren't in the business of student wellbeing, and if they aren't, they need to state so and give the money and resources back.[/quote]
