[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Hmmm., looks like McLean is the most "dangerous" of the schools discussed and Oakton is safest. So much for all those Marshall "bad apples."

These numbers are *really* good, across the board. McLean has a lot of "drug" offenses, but that could simply be because enforcement is stricter. Everything from cigarettes to PCP gets bundled into that category, so that might be a lot of kids getting busted puffing on a cig behind the dumpster between classes. Again, might just be tougher enforcement. I doubt that there is a lot of hard drugs or alcohol *in school* at any of these schools. When you consider how large these schools are, the small numbers of offenses against other students and staff are de minimus in all of these schools (although, again, that could be the result of low enforcement). Madison and Marshall seem to have higher incidents of "disorderly and disruptive behavior." Query whether some of the offenses that might have gone into other categories get put there. Or maybe that has a lot to do with the administration taking "official" action against students in a higher percentage of incidents. But however you look at it, we should be happy that all of our schools appear to be really safe places for our kids to attend. Remember, these schools have around 2000 teenagers with underdeveloped frontal lobes, and these are stats for the entire years. I doubt even a military academy could get its numbers much better. At the end of the day, we need to take a step back from the quibbling about whose school is better than who else's school, and appreciate that we're dealing with a pretty elite batch of schools here.
