People are really just accepting this lunacy. Why???

Why not unite to STOP the violence and make schools safe again?[/quote]

It is baffling and a bit scary that there is not a consensus re: this. And the county is adamant that SROs will not be brought back as though it was an SRO who shot a kid in the school. Alexandria brought them back when violence went up and PG kept them all along. WHAT is going on? And if kids are not held accountable re: pro-social behavior, what will be their trajectory after 18? As a society we have an interest in safety for ourselves and in helping kids get on the right track before adulthood, both. Looking the other way is not working for anyone. [/quote]

The crime in schools reflects crime in society. Crime is up in the county; and it is also up in the county school system. Curb crime in the county, and you'll curb crime in the schools. [/quote]
How do we curb crime in the county? With more police presence, which we need in schools via SRO. Clearly, there is an uptick in violence and mental health issues due to covid.  We need SROs now, at least temporarily.[/quote]
