[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I knew Chris Hixon the athletic director who was murdered at work at Marjorie Stoneman Douglas high school. The student murderer also killed two other teachers as well as 14 students. Most residents of Broward County as well as teachers in the school system and police officers blame restorative justice for the murders.  Teachers had been fearful
of the student for years. Broward county school system adopted the restorative justice model in 2013. President Obama held up the Broward County restorative justice model as something the rest of the country should replicate in 2015.

I still miss Chris Hixon. He gave a lot back to the community. Students should have a safe environment when they go to school and teachers should have a safe workplace.

If students are not getting discipline in the home and not getting discipline at school how are they expected to function in society upon graduation?[/quote]

That’s incredibly sad and I’m sorry for your loss. As someone who works in a school building daily you should know we’re not blind to outlier students. Kids are disciplined for violent and aggressive behaviors all the time, it’s just not broadcast bc they are children. The Marjorie Stoneman shooting is an absolute tragedy, and one that I don’t think would have been stopped by suspending the student. It’s a horrendous outcome and again I’m very very sorry[/quote]
