Even if bathroom monitoring fell into the responsibility of the SRO, how would one position monitor numerous bathrooms in schools serving 1,800-2,200 kids? That math doesn't add up.


They could create a whole new MCPD department specializing in public bathroom safety!!

Magruder has had some locked bathrooms even before the pandemic. They have closed a few others after issues but then reopen them as far as students tell me.

The police won't show up for actual crimes. Why would they show up for this?

Walking around school trying to find a bathroom that is usable is not a safe school and violates a human's basic right. This is the United States of America. Simply despicable if this issue cannot be resolved and fast.

? because you aren't the one searching for a bathroom to use.

RMHS had almost all the bathrooms on the 2nd and 3rd fl locked. They have a daily spreadsheet of which bathrooms are open. Ridiculous.


My kids go to one of the listed schools and say finding an unlocked one is easy.

Now we're up to 10 schools. Hey "handful of schools" poster, what number is sufficient for you to recognize it's a systemic issue?

Wheaton HS has this issue.


Here's a running list:

Quince Orchard
Richard Montgomery
B-CC
Whitman
Paint Branch


Add WJ.


We get it. A minority of HS have toilet issues.


You have zero evidence that it is a "minority" of HS as you claim. What is your issue?


Exactly! There's no evidence this is a widespread problem.


but tt seems to be a problem at a handful of schools


9 schools and counting is a "handful" to you?
