Massachusetts school requests National Guard to be brought in to crackdown on students running amok: 'They're cutting class, having sex and doing drugs'

Committee members at a Massachusetts school have requested that the National Guard be brought in to deal with unruly students 'causing chaos'.

Violence and security concerns have been raised at Brockton High School, with 11 students arrested and criminally charged just last week after a brawl in the school.

Committee members Joyce Asack, Tony Rodrigues, Claudio Gomes and Ana Oliver requested immediate assistance last week 'to prevent a potential tragedy'.

Their letter said: 'Over the past few months, our high school has experienced a disturbing increase in incidents related to violence, security concerns, and substance abuse.

‘The situation has reached a critical point, more recently we had an alarming 35 teachers absent, underscoring the severity of the challenges we are facing.’ The letter added: 'We are formally requesting that you reach out to Governor Healey and request the deployment of the National Guard to assist in restoring order, ensuring the safety of all individuals on the school premises, and implementing measures to address the root causes of the issues we are facing.'

Cellphone footage obtained by NBC Boston shows students fighting in a stairwell at the school.

Several individuals can be seen throwing punches and attacking each other during the melee.

Earlier this month, teachers voiced their concerns during an emergency committee meeting and shared their experiences.

Welcome to the Post-Civilization world.

This the change which the Democrat Party worked for decades to bring down upon us.

Their parents all vote Democrat so that won’t happen. Probably will find a way to blame “MAGA” and Trump for their little sh*ts acting as vicious pack animals.

Wouldn’t going to class and behaving be “Acting White?”

Wasn’t there a security video recently where a 6 ft 5 inch 300 lb student with learning disabilities and an I.E.P. individualized education plan? The plan severely restricted any discipline actions that the school could use for behavior.
A female teacher tried to take away the student’s Nintendo Switch hand held game that he was playing in class and he punched her so hard she collapsed like a sack of dropped potatoes, unconscious on the tile floor in the hallway.
Unreal.

The root cause is lack of meaningful discipline and reluctance to separate out the bad apples.

Now, however, if they allowed teachers to mete out meaningful punishments many would be reluctant to do so for fear of physical violence from the students.

They let these problems fester way too long.

Let’s see... parents let the internet parent their children. Parents won’t allow anyone to correct their child taking the position that their child is nearly perfect.

Kids realize that they can do almost anything, and this is what you get. The National Guard will be handcuffed just as the indoctrinators are.

They could be fined.

Until the fines are paid, no driving license.

They are of high school age.

Young ladies don’t like to walk when they can ride in style.

Young men generally like the companionship of young ladies.

Correct.

Attempts to force a traditional post-elementary education on a low-IQ high impulsivity population are first of all doomed to fail and second of all will require increasing levels of coercion, especially of males, as their age increases.

The obvious answer to preserve some semblance of education after eighth grade is entrance exams for free high school - if your IQ is too low or you don't want to go, that's fine.

High school isn't prison, it's time to stop running it like one.

“Now, however, if they allowed teachers to mete out meaningful punishments many would be reluctant to do so for fear of physical violence from the students.”

The problem is the kids want to be expelled which for this crap they should be.

I’m interested to know more about BROCKTON HIGH SCHOOL

Its voting patterns, demographics, income, welfare-use, teaching ideology

They mention a lot about “diversity” when describing themselves....
