[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I can't wait until this is over.

How is this MCPS’s fault? Do you not read news from all over the US?[/quote]

Let's be honest with ourselves. This is a threat against wheaton. If the entire county wasn't under one reign of error this wouldn't be my problem tonight.

Also, the fact that they didn't bring back SRO'S but had a bulletin survey about snow days is pretty much their fault. Yes.[/quote]

Can’t blame the lack of SROs on MCPS. The blame for removing SROs falls directly on the County Council.  [/quote]
and the uber progressive liberals who pushed for them to be removed.  It's especially troubling for certain schools that have more violence.[/quote]

SROs don't prevent this. They were supposed to be a daily presence. Not having them does not mean no police protection. The idea was that in a crisis, police could be called in and resource officers there for the period needed. When there was an issue at Blair, that's what happened. Police responded quickly, and there was a police presence. The SRO controversy is a red herring here.

My concern is the vague wording about the threat level and the police presence and any action being taken. I have a kid at Wheaton. Given the wording "low level threat" rather than "nonthreat," the recent gun violation and BB gun violation, I am keeping them home today. Several classes have zoom options due to covid, and many assignments are able to track online, so it should be at least a partial online learning day rather than just missed school.

Do they actually have people in custody for this?[/quote]
