I am in the Sherwood Cluster, there is talk but no details. It is on Next Door for our neighborhood and people are discussing the problem as a whole in the area. The Principal is addressing the situation (2 different emails) and has reached out to address this with the other school prior to the Washington Post Article. Problem is MCPS does nothing toward accountability at any school, and this systemic problem starts at home.

MCPS needs to install cameras everywhere

Um, other kids.
Everyone knows who was suspended for stealing something from a bathroom recently.
Everyone knows which boys cyber-bullied a girl a couple years back. Screenshots were circulated.
These racist incidents hit WaPo, everybody is talking about it yet nobody has leaked a name, gender or race? That’s weird. Really weird.
Nobody expects the WaPo to name names, but it’s really strange that students don’t know.
Could you please just go ahead and tell us your explanation for this weird phenomenon you are describing?

Let me clarify:
Since news travels fast, everyone typically knows who did what…oftentimes before the school administration does.
Everyone quickly has the details when someone is suspended, when someone is cyber-bullied, when there is a fight, when something inappropriate happens at a party, etc. You know the names of the students.
With these incidents, nobody seems to know who was involved. That’s very unusual. Kids talk. Yet nobody seems to know who was involved.
It’s not because people don’t care. I’m wondering how they have managed to keep it quiet.
Evidently not always. Or maybe kids are talking, but not to you.
Who's going to name minors?

"Nobody" who? I expect that plenty of people know, starting with the Sherwood students who did it and the Einstein students who experienced it.

I agree that it’s strange that nobody is talking about it. Nothing on next door, the Facebook pages or Community list serves. It is as if nobody in the community is reading the news or is aware that it is happening. I know the kids know and they’re not talking and that is a shame.
I have more than one kid at Sherwood. The kids know there were incidents, but they don’t know who was involved. That’s what is so strange. Everyone is stumped as to how nobody knows who was involved.

I also have a kid at Blair who says Sherwood is known for racist taunting during games (the spectators, not the players). I would imagine they are doing this to other schools as well. There needs to be consequences for the whole school.

That seems to suggest that nobody thinks it’s a big deal. If there’s no transgression in their eyes, why gossip about it?
In other words, a lack of scandal suggests racist and misogynistic remarks are business as usual at Sherwood.
That’s ridiculous.
Trust me: everyone is curious. Everyone is asking, yet nobody seems to know anything. That’s unheard of.
Even before I had kids at Sherwood, I still heard about major incidents at the school from neighbors.
Lastly, it’s beyond ridiculous to label any school or any group as racist…unless of course you are acknowledging the fact that all humans have bias and the potential to think/say/do racist things. That’s a well documented fact.

Well, they were racist toward Einstein students.

Einstein parents care. Maybe Sherwood parents do not.
