[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This kid should get an appropriate private school placement now, paid for by MCPS. Somewhere where he will be safe. Of course many kids should be getting that - explain to me again [b]why we don’t have charter schools here[/b]?

Has the kid who beat him been arrested or is he at school beating up other kids??[/quote]

Because they're not a good use of public money.

Don't kids in private schools get in fights? If they do, what does the private school do?[/quote]

Is the issue here that two ninth grade boys got into a fight?
Or that it was allowed to go on so long before an adult intervened?
Or that the school chose to tell the mother when she arrived an hour later to take injured kid to an ER rather than call ambulance directly?
MCPS principals don’t like to call police or ambulances, because it shows up in their school report as an incident. Perhaps MCPS needs to review their policies so that there isn’t an incentive for principals to avoid calling for help. In a school with few incidents, a principal can afford to call an ambulance or police. In a school where it happens a lot more, the principal is feeling pressure to get those incidents down.
