[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Parents should write administration. [/quote]
Why exactly? They clearly don’t care. 
Why should administrators care?[/quote]

They care if a parent puts a safety concern about another student in writing. They do not want something on record that could make them look culpable if things really come to a head like in Newport News. [/quote]
I don’t know that writing a safety concern letter to the administrators has made a difference in the past five years. Any examples?[/quote]

I can think of several examples. My kid's elementary school had a student who was constantly disruptive, threatening other students, fighting, and brought a knife to school. The principal tried to downplay it. That worked until other kids started recording the threats and fights on their phones. Parents wrote a collective letter and at least one threatened to press charges. The student was placed elsewhere. At our middle school there was another kid who was touching girls without permission and making sexual comments while touching himself. Parents were all over it immediately. The principal to her credit stepped up and took it seriously and the student was put at a CSS. At the same school a different kid with a history of bad behavior was posting himself on social media with guns and threatening people he didn't like. Parents were obviously concerned and sent multiple emails. My child wasn't involved but I heard through the grapevine the offender and his mother tried to pull all kinds of nonsense at the MDR that followed and the school was having none of it. Not sure where the kid ended up but it wasn't back at the same middle school.
