This can't be swept under the rug and criminal charges must be filed!
Do you even hear yourself.

And then send a video if possible to do so safely. My teens were really happy with that information as they thought they could do any of that discretely. Please talk to your kids about this.
But it’s also important o recognize that peole in a traumatic situation often don’t think rationally. When I did first aid training they taught us to yell Call 911 and identify a specific person to do so because if you tell call an ambulance, a shocking number of people blank on what the number is, and also if you just yell it into the crowd, everyone will assume someone else called. And that’s with adults!
There is a rampant "no snitching" culture and attitude in Gen Z. We as parents and a community have to break our kids of this. It is toxic and corrosive to everyone's collective and individual wellbeing.
As I said to my 16-year-old just the other day, I'm so glad that I read DCUM so I can find out what Gen Z is up to!
However, I was not being sincere when I said that.

mcps thought process- it didn't happen on school property, unless they are charged-and convicted, they are welcome in our schools.
if this was before the strongarm law changed the kid who stole the shoes after beating him up would be facing 15-20 years, now just facing a misdemeanor theft of under $1000 that comes with a small fine.
Are these individuals confirmed to have been involved in the fights or are you just speculating they might have been because they were suspended?

Those laws were put in place to protect Biff who is headed to Harvard but thought it would be fun to steal a street sign and get in a fight at Caddies... so as not to "ruin his life" over 1 night of poor decisions.
I'm all for Biff going to jail personally. I'd also like all the parents who cheat on their taxes and declare bankruptcy in jail but alas they are at Congressional playing golf.
the kid who stole the shoes was expelled previously but let back in. I doubt his parents were playing golf or thinking he was headed to harvard.

How is a student who lives in Suitland enrolled in MCPS?
