This is definitely a troll who didn't read the whole thread trying to stir up things. Nobody in their right mind can possibly believe this.

So let me get this straight. A kid who chokes another kid on the school bus just goes on with her life and stays in the same school as the victim despite a protection order for the victim, but a kid who writes that they are homophobic on a Google doc that they trash, that kid should be face a lifetime of consequences. Is that how it works in schools today? Violence is fine, but words are police-worthy and punishable.


You’re being a bit hyperbolic so it’s hard to respond but in essence, yes. It’s really quite simple, bigotry and hate are just not acceptable.

Regarding your example of a child, choking another, well, that child should be in a juvenile facility or jail if old enough, imo.

I doubt these were LatinX kids. Sounds more like kids who are themselves bullied.


"LatinX" is imperialistic and disrespectful to Hispanic/Latino/Latina people.

Please don't use that term.


There was ONE study where 40% of people of Hispanic descent said it was disrespectful. Which means 60% did not think it was disrespectful. Meanwhile, there are people who find Hispanic imperialistic because they don’t have Spanish ancestry or the Spanish ancestry they have was from colonizers raping their African or Native female ancestors. Read a little about which activists have embraced the term before you speak for everyone.

I don’t think you understand that an admonition to not speak for everyone inherently takes into account not speaking for everyone. Wait until you learn that some young people prefer the term Latine. Go clutch your pearls in a blander part of the internet.

There seems to be a very weird thing where schools simultaneously refuse to actually discipline kids but then sometimes will report them to the police.

I care about gun control, drug overdoses, pedophile staff. MCPS needs to fix that more.


This +1 million and I have kids at Wood.

We have limited resources. I don’t want to see our school and county resources wasted on a non-issue. Use that to deal with actual issues.


No money is allocated to the police investigating. How uneducated are you?


The police work for free? Not quite. Calling the police over some kids acting stupid is a waste of resources. I don't blame the Principal, but I do blame the BOE/MCPS for this nonsense.


It doesn’t come out of the school budget.


Since when has “call the police for school discipline matters on a hair trigger” been progressive educational policy, regardless of where the funding comes from?
