I have been waiting for this root cause to be brought out into the open.

MSM will not trace it back to the origins...Obama, Holder and the leftist, racist plans to decimate our schools and hold people in fear.

snip... In 2014, the Obama administration issued a “Dear Colleague” guidance that threatened school districts – whose disciplinary measures showed a disproportionately greater number of minority students affected – could be subject to investigation by the Departments of Justice and Education, regardless of whether the behaviors leading to the discipline were unacceptable.

Snip... At RCI, journalist Paul Sperry reviewed documents related to the Broward County Public Schools PROMISE program, the aim of which, he says, was to allow “thousands of troubled, often violent, students to commit crimes without legal consequence” in the name of saving minority and low-income students from the “school-to-prison pipeline.”

In place of suspensions, expulsions, and arrests for delinquent and violent behavior, the policy called for interventions such as “teen court” and “restorative justice.”

“The Florida Legislature … has instructed school districts ‘that zero-tolerance policies are not intended to be rigorously applied to petty acts of misconduct and misdemeanors, including, but not limited to, minor fights or disturbances,’” says the PROMISE agreement, signed onto by the school district and law enforcement.

In 2015, during a panel of the National Urban League Conference, Runcie said Broward County Public Schools had “the determination and tenacity to become the national leader in closing the achievement gap, and we will get this done … helping our kids in our classrooms and not sending them to courtrooms.”

Coddling those engaged in bad behavior is a much better guarantee of their future criminality than holding them to the same standards as everyone else would be. It’s racist when those on the left pretend minority children are incapable of behaving in a civilized manner. I suspect the left’s policies even contributes to thugs getting shot by cops - a lifetime habit of being combative with no consequences is hard to break.

WHERE IS THE DEMAND FOR FEDERAL AND STATE INVESTIGATIONS ????

They’re DELIBERATELY missing the point It’s not guns or the NRA It’s what they don’t want you to know

It’s policies which had cops standing outside while killing was going on, or allowing some nut getting a gun the FBI knew he wasn’t suppose to... Plus a whole raft of other stuff

Ignoring the law and FL statues on criminal conduct paved the way for Cruz to become a cold blooded killer both in and out of school.

What about the other millions of Florida teenagers who live outside of Broward. They have to OBEY the law. The state is running DUAL forms of justice.

Sanctuary for Broward and OBEY for the rest the state. It’s a constitutional legal conflict within the state.

BSO responded to at least 45 calls to Cruz’s home -“included incidents in which Cruz “held a gun up to his mom’s head” (a felony),... imbibed gasoline,.... cut himself, etc.

From this we learn that the Broward NAACP sanctuary school policy extends to the home as well as the school?

In Broward you can hold a gun to another’s head and not get arrested. O.J. did less in Vegas.

So when an Orlando/Tampa/Miami punk holds his mama at gunpoint, he should just tell the police that they can’t arrest him.

Sheriff Israel, the Top-Cop in Florida, whose running the largest sheriffs office in the nation says, “It’s just fine with our PROMISE program. do as you d@mn well please cuz you’re under 18!”

The legal ramifications for the rest of the juveniles in the state are huge. Florida is running a dual juvenile justice system.

ANOTHER REASON TO HOMESCHOOL

This ping list is for the other articles of interest to homeschoolers about education and public school. This can occasionally be a fairly high volume list. Articles pinged to the Another Reason to Homeschool List will be given the keyword of ARTH. (If I remember. If I forget, please feel free to add it yourself)

The main Homeschool Ping List handles the homeschool-specific articles. I hold both the Homeschool Ping List and the Another Reason to Homeschool Ping list. Please freepmail me to let me know if you would like to be added to or removed from either list, or both.

“Prior to this email, York and Styrlund both say union officials had informed them union members’ benefits do not include ensuring a safe environment for teachers.”

The leftist cabal has orchestrated this...

This is part of the reason are schools are in such trouble. I worked at a predominately minority school, 98%, and we were called out for suspending or expelling too many minority students. What would the answer be, import white students so we could suspend them? Insanity.

Teacher here, in urban Omaha. There is NO discipline anymore, none. And the feral beasts know it. It is complete anarchy in the schools. It’s amazing to me, that 13% of the population can disrupt the entire learning process. Kids are kids, most just want to do what they need to do and get by, believe it or not, most kids are basically good, but throw in a few “of color”, who basically act like animals: screaming, jumping on each other, profanity, chronic tardiness, skipping class, throwing things in class, listening to music loudly, refusing to follow any request, escalating any redirection, refusing to leave the classroom, fighting, laying on the floor, dancing competitions in the classroom, running around in the classroom, intimidation of others, bullying, intimidation of teacher, leaving classroom and then reentering when ever they feel like it, consuming mass quantities of junk food during class, racist comments, race baiting. THIS IS DAILY.

I feel sorry for the rest of my students. If I have a classroom of 30, and for some god awful reason the counselors have gifted me with 8 or more, “blacks”, that class is doomed. And nothing can be done. NOTHING. The administration, the district, other teachers, NO ONE will say what is actually going on. Welcome to public school people. Like I always say, it’s “location, location, location” or send your kid to private school.

What people not in education do not grasp is that this awful behavior begins in Kindergarten. In certain districts it is almost impossible to teach between the out of control kids & the kids who come in with no skills whatsoever. Like they were found in the forest & brought to school.

No conversation or books at home. Some barely know their name! Then I go to the grocery in the town where we live and the mom is involving the baby/young child in her purchases,....talking in an animated voice.

Yesterday I sat in on a meeting w/ a parent whose child was being put into special ed. ( he frankly should be in youth court, but hey) She had her newborn & said grandma was taking care of her two other kids(she didn’t know that her son didn’t come to school that day) while she cared for her 3 month old. She THEN said she is so tired that she sleeps all day long!!!!! I guess the TV is watching her baby. It was apparent she had an extremely low IQ.

After she left the teacher told me that the baby daddy had another girlfriend, so she chased after her in her car one day & rammed her off the road. Someone in the car died & she was never charged. Yep, that’s a day at school.

Thanks for posting this eye opening article.
"RESTORATIVE JUSTICE is the latest Leftist catch phrase. It is the old whine of victimology in a new bottle.
