How—with the above, the Arundel football player incident, the MAGA presence, the Mike Peroutka support, and this incident—can some of you still deny that this school and area has a very significant problem with racism? How can you claim to be liberal DCUM and then move to this area for “the schools”?


Thank you, I remember hearing about these incidents too. I will be a SP parent (kid is not in middle or high school yet). What can I do? Write an angry email describing my disgust? Look into privates? Our friends and families are diverse so I don’t worry that my kid will turn MAGA but this is deeply unsettling.

Too late. Severna Park and Arundel HS parents already gerrymandered themselves out of the Old Mill redistricting. They’re being redistricted with the whiter and richer “southern” schools instead.

I don’t think you need to move or send your kids to privates. I would highly encourage you to get involved with the SP schools and push for more accountability and transparency. Find more like-minded parents. Severna Park Liberals is a nice Facebook group you could join to connect with other liberal-minded families in SP & create change with.

The culture is toxic, but it also has potential to change if more parents like yourself push the schools to do better.

The response to this from the new superintendent will be very telling.
He’s a black man and I hope he uses the full weight of his life experience to provide some perspective to the kids at sphs (and their parents)

I sure hope the global citizenship class these tackles this head-on

Were both kids white?

I'm gonna go on a limb and guess that child was not taught Christian values by his parents and practicing kindness and acceptance of special needs children.


No, the kid being taunted and bullied is black and disabled. How horrible for his family to have to watch this.



I saw the unblurred video, and the kid actually appeared to be white (unless he’s mixed and just white passing).

Really? Because recent grads of SPHS in every SP related Facebook (especially non-white alumni) have been saying otherwise and that they’re happy that the school is finally under fire for this problem.

This is a half MAGA community that voted for Mike Peroutka (an actual neo nazi), but sure, let’s pretend Severna Park isn’t racist. It must be those pesky and jealous trolls from Bethesda and Takoma Park who are jealous of your $600k split level in Chartwell or those “peasants” from other parts of AA County who wish they were as good as SP. :eyeroll:

Parents - listen to your children, how they speak to other kids. If they say something nasty, you nip that sh-- in the bud right there and give them a talking to. If I even hear my DD saying "shut up" in a rude way, I bust in there. Nasty kids are a reflection of bad parenting.

This is something that’s occurring now, how is it trolling to bring it up


Pretending it’s something unique to SP is the trolling part. That living in MoCo or Fairfax would prevent exposure too.


An incident of this magnitude is pretty rare. Racism may not be, but bullying a special needs kid to the point of calling him “c****le” and threatening him with violence isn’t common at Fairfax or MoCo high schools, don’t sit there and act like it is. This is the result of SP letting kids get away with everything and some of the parents in the community failing to instill morals in their kids.

Are you the one calling people trolls for discussing this?

"I'm actually going to put this kid in an electric chair and shove dynamite up your a*s"


I guess I've led a sheltered life ( I'm in my 50s), but even being able to say something so disgusting is something I don't understand for the life of me. I just don't get it. What could be wrong with someone that they could say all that, and while they are LAUGHING, and in front of other people, and to another human being's face (disabled or not, but definitely worse that the poor kid was disabled)? It's just something that I can't wrap my head around at all.



Bullies love to be mean and will say anything to get a reaction.


I think we can all agree that this is beyond the typical bullying. This is so cruel. Also many have already noted how MAGA SP is but it is a school that’s easily over 80% white
