What people are saying

by a student
Saturday, December 15, 2012

In the school year of 2012-2013 we have already had 8 students be sent to alternative school. 1 for fighting, 1 for sagging, 1 for stealing money from students and teachers, and 5 for knifes and razor blades. In two cases the blades were used. One kid cut 7 people and three of them were cut twice. The other stabbed a boy in the leg. The boy who was stabbed in the leg stole 2000 dollars cash from a student and the crime went unsolved and unpunoshed. The money was for an out of country field trip. A coach was arrested for having sex with and sexting at least 7 confirmed students. 4 days ago there were two fights. What will be done about the schoolthat has a sign in every bathroom that says not to flush dip down the toliets. Why are they allowing us to dip. Another coach and the one who was arrested smoked weed with at least 5-15 football players. There are also racism towards blacks and whites written on walls along with satanic symbols. All of this has happened in less than a 4 month period... Where's the peace? Close Quote
