[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Ashlawn/Kenmore family here - Ashlawn was fine, we saw the change after the AWESOME principal Mr. AB left but still a good school.

Kenmore is ok - we have a boy there and he has avoided most of the drama/violence so far.  His friends are at Swanson and it does not sound much better there - except the kids are all white, still a good amount of fights/bullying.

Girls are more "mean girl" types at Swanson while Kenmore girls are violent (mostly in the latino population).  The girls there regularly will fight boys in 3 on 1 type fight.  Group fights is when you normally get the EMS on campus text alert....about once a week.

Probably more girl fights at Kenmore than most places, typically non-white on non-white.

If you are latino from Ashlawn or N Arlington you would have a challenge mixing with the tougher south arlington latino crowd....typically they leave white kids alone.[/quote]

Oh wow. This sounds scary. My kids are still in elementary but had no idea middle school was like this. [/quote]

Middle school kids are a tough age.
There is no “safe” school except for hb probably.  But that school is rigged for kids in favor and their siblings.  Like a private fraternity and sorority paid for by Arlington county.

I would not stress about any middle school- you survived and it is probably not much different now than it was for you….unless you went to school with like 100 kids and 25 teachers.[/quote]

and here comes the hb conspiracy theorists, of course they had to show up[/quote]
