[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Do you mean kids get bullied or beat up, or what’s happening at Eastern?[/quote]

Our DC likes Eastern overall, and really likes the Magnet. He says the lunch room is loud, and the kids in his PE/health class mess around a ton. But, he doesn't notice much difference in his science and math classes (non-magnet) in terms of mis-behaving. No bullying or beating up to be reported.[/quote]

I teach at Eastern. There aren’t fights or attacks between the magnet and comprehensive students. Last year, there were two fights between magnet students. [/quote]

That is straight up not true.  Or you are simply unaware.

I do know that admin at all schools likes to downplay incidents, so maybe that is influencing your viewpoint.

But there have definitely been issues.[/quote]

DP. Like what? Could you pleasay more about this? My DC is timid and therefore the academics aren’t the only factor for us. [/quote]

Yes, please list the specific incidents of fights between the two populations. Don’t name names, but since you have such certainty, you can tell grade levels, approximate dates, and locations.[/quote]
