[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It seems more of a community issue than a MCPS issue.
Even if the family never indulges in racial or ethnic slurs and promotes respect for all religions and cultures, I imagine some teenagers fall down the rabbit hole of the dark side of the internet. They get influenced by conspiracy theories and who knows what else.
Unless a student physically defaces a sign on MCPS property or says something offensive at school, I don’t believe MCPS has the legal authority to punish the student. [/quote]

MCPS punishes no one. In cases of bullying, harassment, and assault, most of the time it is the VICTIM who ends up leaving  the school.

They just sweep everything under the rug and kids know it and continue to do what they want.  It is embarrassing. [/quote]

MCPS's job is to educate. If laws are being broken, it's MCPD's job to deal with it.[/quote]

Not if they don’t call the MCPD, which they rarely do. [/quote]

If schools are covering up crime then those responsible are complicit and also need to be charged.

This is the problem right here.

Parents used to have authority over their kids.

A school used to issue warnings or suspensions with authority and for most it would change the behavior in school because kids were more afraid of parents than school.

But parents now defend actions of their kids and never hold them accountable.

And now kids are no longer scared of school actions.

And now the schools are left with deciding what warrants police time to get certain situations or kids under control and what doesn’t. And either decision gives them a split of parent haters of doing too much or not enough.
