So many people "liked" a neighbor's post that told people not to talk or discuss or ask questions of ACPS and "let the leaders take care of it". Okay, well what our kids are telling us contradict what was communicated by ACPS. What I found out was that an administrator was seriously injured and required medical attention. Some friends' kids said that people involved were not even ACPS students. Rumors are that some were adults and some had DC drivers' licenses when arrested. So much for ACPS checking student IDs. I am really disturbed that people think that it is anti-immigrant, racist, or white supremecist behavior to wonder about safety issues at your own child's school, to ask questions about what your own child reported to his/her/their parents, etc. This is what infuriates me about ACPS.

You also can’t believe everything your kids hear! This is a lot of unconfirmed rumor you’re posting her regarding injuries and DC adults being involved. APD has stated publicly there were no reported injuries. The issues should be discussed and addressed, but I would urge caution about posting unconfirmed facts spread by students.

ACPS needs a real alternative school run by the juvenile court system with law enforcement juvenile officers and social workers and alternative high school teachers to address. The police scanner was upsetting as were the videos circulating. Not a productive learning environment and no teachers should have to be in this situation
