[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Look, the severe overcrowding is directly tied in with this.  The administration can't keep their thumb on things due to numbers.  I have had friends at MS in Arlington be highly unsatisfied when they meet with school officials over incidents (these weren't drug--other problems fairly serious as well) that from meeting to meeting they didn't have a clear grasp of what students were involved, who they were---they'd forget from meeting to meeting.

All of this burns up so much with dumbsh*t Murphy, the dumb*ss school board members and some active parents who believe any of the sh*t they tell them that over-crowded, super-sized schools aren't a problem.  They ARE both academically and socially.[/quote]

I do agree that it's very easy for kids to "hide" in these overcrowded schools. My neighbors have a WHS student who started drugs when at APS MS. He started with pot, moved on to ecstacy and cocaine. Now he's in rehab program #2 and his family is afraid to bring him back home to Arlington, because of the large schools and the fact that no one noticed his truancy or his drug use for over THREE YEARS. I'm sure it didn't help that his mom is outsourcing her "babysitting" to the kid's older sister, so not much monitoring or accountability on that home front, but it's sad that APS is spending over $20K a year on each child and yet unable to get smaller classrooms and more positive environment in its hallways.
