‘Massive brawl’ at Revere High School sends staff member to the hospital
Boston.com ^ | 08/30/2024 | Abby Patkin

A Revere High School administrator was injured after a “massive brawl” broke out just days into the new school year, according to the Revere Teachers Association.

In a news release Friday, the educators union alleged that a high school administrator was hit in the face as they attempted to break up a fight on the third day of school. While the RTA alleged that the staff member was knocked out in the fight and had to be taken to a hospital by ambulance, Revere Public Schools disputed both claims.

The district confirmed there was a physical altercation involving several students during the transition into lunch period Thursday. In a statement, Revere Public Schools said one staff member was struck during the fight and was taken to the hospital “out of an abundance of caution,” though they are home now and reportedly feeling fine.

But for the Revere Teachers Association, Thursday’s incident is another rallying point in an ongoing battle over school safety.

“Revere educators saw this coming as we have consistently raised these concerns, and now our schools are being impacted by this avoidable incident,” RTA co-presidents Michelle Ervin and Jane Chapin said in a statement. “Revere educators know that our working conditions are our students’ learning conditions, and we are deeply frustrated as we have provided solutions to address this health and safety crisis. It has fallen on deaf ears.”

The union further alleged that many students were also involved in an after-school altercation this week on Beach Street near Revere High School. According to the Revere Teachers Association, a clip of the incident made the rounds on social media and showed what appeared to be a firearm.

The GOP should push for school choice. No one in their right mind wants Government Schools to be their only option.

There is school choice to a degree.

There’s private, Christian, Catholic, and homeschool.

Of the four, homeschooling is the cheapest and least time intensive by far.

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.

one staff member was struck during the fight...they are home now

Poor staff member - struck so hard he or she was split into multiple individuals.

True enough.

I pay almost $15,000 a year in property tax.

And then I could also pay for some type of private or parochial school.
Or I could homeschool.

I’d like my tax money which is intended for children’s education to be made available to me for children’s education.
But that’s not the current situation.

I wouldn’t be surprised to see Trump take a massive move against public sector employee unions. It’s at the heart of the problem in America, the Deep state and all the way down to your local schools.

They is a perfectly correct pronoun when you don’t know the sex of the individual. How can you construct a sentence with an unknown gender. You call them they.

I just created such a sentence by using phrases or words such as ‘staff member’ and the plural form of ‘individual.’

There’s a lot wrong with unions. A lot. But sometimes they are the only ones willing to tell you the truth. This is one example of that.
