This is happening in every high school and even middle schools in our county. Yet it gets covered up and the same bullies and aggravators are allowed back in because they can’t be expelled. Expel them!

And then what happens to these expelled kids?

That will be their parent’s problem to solve. Looks like they’ll have to step up and start parenting. Real consequences for crime. Unlike Jwando and Mink, I don’t think these kids who are assaulting other kids need to stay within the public school system.

And when they don't?

Their parents either don't care, are dead, or are terrified of their own children.

Wishing is not a strategy.

Prison, where they clearly belong.

I am SO puzzled by this. Voters keep voting for the same crap. It’s like people in this county are so brainwashed that they can’t even realize that they are voting against their own kids’ best interest.

I would love to see how many people complaining on this thread voted dem. Honestly I'd bet it's nearly 100%.

Whitman parents trying to differentiate between "real" Whitman students and "fake" Whitman students are pathetic. They are all in the same school!

True, but the shelter kids tend to be pretty short term. Whitman can be a challenging environment because many of them are several grade levels behind and even the 9th grade level is a challenge. So they skip classes. The school really tries to work with them but they often end up going back to their families in other parts of the state.

We need to look at reopening Mark Twain for these kids. Plopping them into regular schools is not working.

Clearly we need a school where we can put all the violent kids that don’t belong in regular schools. They can get the attention and discipline they need there, and meanwhile the rest of the kids can get a good education without living in terror.

Why is this so difficult??

Because progressives

But really, because funding and staffing. There is not enough money for the discrete programs in county school right now, and special education teachers can’t get out of MCPS fast enough. Even if the found the funding to open a building, there would not be enough teachers to run it.

The school did nothing despite us reporting the incident to the SRO and county police as an official report. We never heard back. The only consequence the perpetrator faced was a few days of in-school suspension, even though the child was a known repeat offender.

There is a push to avoid the punitive school-to-jail pipeline, but the side effect is that kids realize they won't face serious consequences, so they continue these behaviors. There is no accountability within the school system or even the juvenile justice system. This lack of accountability contributes to the rise in juvenile crime. The focus on avoiding punishment in favor of rehabilitation is often exploited by kids, and if the child is from an underrepresented minority group, there seems to be even less incentive to pursue any form of punishment.

If you engage in this type of behavior, you forfeit your right to an education. At least at that school.
