That's insane. My son's friend was assaulted by other kids at Maury, and APS was NOT called. I am guessing that whatever the incident that led the police to be called for your disabled child was LESS serious than that, not more. Unacceptable.


Why would the police be called because a couple 8 year olds had a shoving match?

It wasn't a shoving match, they cornered the kid and were kicking and punching him. And they were 10 and 11, and he was disabled.

Wait- are you the Maury parent? Someone claiming to be you is telling a very different story.

I'm pretty sure there are two separate incidents being discussed.

1) PP's child with special needs made a threat and was interrogated by APD
2) Students were beating a special needs student and APD was called.

procedure at at ACPS schools?


Yes - my elementary age special needs child was interrogated by a APD officer when at school without ACPS providing us actual notice. ACPS’ actions did violate school policy.


That's awful. Was it an SRO, or an APD officer that was not an SRO? Our ACPS elementary did not have an SRO.


Thanks. It was an APD officer who was not a SRO.

My child allegedly made a threatening statement to a fellow student who we later discovered had been bullying him. Before the police interrogation, the Vice Principal had determined my son’s statement was a transient threat and my son had been permitted to return to class. My son was pulled out of class for the interrogation.

Who called the police? Why were the police permitted to do this? What was the explanation for you not being called? It's crazy and outrageous!

The students at our school respect our SRO and appreciate the SRO's presence in our building. As another poster pointed out, students are worried about violence against them by an outsider and the students find the presence of an SRO reassuring and calming.

I don’t spout any bias to children dummy. You think I’m sitting in class ever talking about the SRO? Uh no.
