Schools can send kids back to their IB school if they have disciplinary or attendance issues. They should make better use of this.

Why do you assume this kid had behavior issues? They usually don’t let people with severe issues participate in sports. You all have to remember that the people who killed him are likely his neighbors. Some kid in PG county got stabbed for his shoes last week, this literally could have been over anything.

For anyone who has a child in this class -there is a long history going back to Deal WRT to behavior
People are being polite here

Anonymous wrote:Maybe. Just maybe. Perhaps the police will start doing something about after school. The open pot smoking at the top of the metro escalator. The occasional games of craps.

None of this is unknown to MPD. They do something for three days and then it’s back to sitting in their car.

It’s really hard to support more funding for MPD when they don’t actually seem to do much.

And the location of the homicide has been a problem spot for a while. The hoodlums hang out by the dumpsters at the back of the CVS lot.

The child who was killed is usually not the problem.

Where is the child from who has the gun? Where are the children from who are covering up a murder? Those are the little slime ball kids im wishing the worst on.

There’s a parking lot with a ledge that overhangs Chesapeake St. there’s often kids up there smoking pot (we are neighborhood walkers with kids at JR) and police responded yesterday when a gun discharged. Kids were on the baseball field and a local preschool had its kids out a block away. MPD needs to be in the community more and patrolling these hot spots.

That is actually false, the pre-school was closed for the afternoon for teacher's appreciation day. But they would typically be out at that time. A lot of kids of all ages are in that area constantly though.

Which daycare are you talking about? 2 birds or Communikids?

Communikids was open and had kids out at their time. They sent a full email to parents outlining how they responded and got the kids back to the building.
