[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It doesn't seem to be going any better at FCPS.  My child's elementary school really pushed for it for a bullying situation in lieu of actually doing anything.  The RJ mediator met with the students and opted not to go forward with the process.  So, the thing that the school was relying on isn't going to happen.  [/quote]
Naive parents got tricked into this nonsense.[/quote]

There is a bullying incident in my child's classroom a week ago where they used RJ and it worked beautifully. The problem was completely resolved.[/quote]
Per MCPS's own report, it's not working "beautifully".  It's an abysmal failure.[/quote]

Well, at our school, RJ helped put an end to my kid being bullied so I have to disagree. It works great.[/quote]
If this is true, name the school.[/quote]

I'm glad for the PPs who had a good experience with RJ.  I'm the FCPS poster (also an elementary school issue) and my main problem is that school admin is relying on it to solve all the problems but then the RJ mediator doesn't go through with it (perhaps for valid reasons) and nothing happens. The school is hiding behind this process, which is a problem.[/quote]
