Incredibly weak justification for being nosy. What happened to this kid actually affects you zero.
Nosy? Not in the slightest. I prefer to live in a world where people care about each other, especially our kids, and that requires knowing what’s going on.

I think it’s great to alert the rich Loudoun parents that things like this happen at schools other than Park View, which has been the prevailing attitude.
In that respect, I don’t disagree.

What email?
Are you not an LCPS parent? Thanks to Youngkin’s stupid EO now we all get an email if a kid has any kind of overdose at any school. So we all got one about some kid at Freedom having an OD yesterday.
And who cares about “some kid at Freedom,” amirite?? Good God, do you hear yourself?
No, to be honest, I don’t need to know that some kid at Freedom has a non-fatal overdose any more than I need to know any other kid’s medical events. I wish them well and it’s NOT my business or yours to know about it if my kids don’t go to that school and I don’t work at that school. These alerts were previously going out to the individuals in the school community where these events occurred, which was appropriate (and as I’m in the Park View community, I know because I got many). But the entire county doesn’t need to know when this happens at another school they aren’t involved with.

Good. Maybe some parents will wake the F up about all of this.

My kids are afraid to pour their own NyQuil without me doing it for them.

I am not sure if this this really helps kids at all or reduces drug use (the EO says schools have to give information about decision making courses and worlk with law enforcement). But I know folks wanted this so now it's here. It be nice if it talked about money for rehab, therapy, or alternative schools which provide those things. But government these days seems to function by making a show of things vs doing anything that will actually help.
I think it doesn't make much sense to require the schools to infom people district wide. Like my friend in Fairfax got notification about a school 45 mins away that her kid will never go to. Not sure how that is useful at all?
Also, personally I don't really care about being notified right away of some other kids OD. If it is my kid I will know..otherwise I would rather the EO focus on statistic collecting that I'd made accessible.

I’m a teacher. We are used to the pendulum swing in education. Last one got rid of all alternative schools. Now we’ve lived with the nightmare that creates and the pendulum can swing back to the other end where we have them again and use them in a better way.
What a nightmare for the current HS students just trying to keep their heads down, get a good education and graduate. Nobody ever talks about them, or how all these ineffective experiments affect them.
Actually, we do, a lot.
Not from where I am sitting. It’s all about making school easier and more flexible and less strict for the deadbeats.
Oh, well, newsflash, where you’re sitting isn’t in a school. In a school , we have this conversation ALL the time.
