On the other hand, schools have students for a large part of the day. Schools can make a difference by setting strict and consistent behavioral rules, rules with consequences.
But administrators won’t do that. Rules and wokeness don’t go together.
So here we are.
Every child a planned and wanted child.
13% of the population commits 50% of all crime. Including elementary school aged “gimme dats”
Harford county is northeast of Baltimore.
The trouble is the ease at which “civil rights” lawsuits can be filed against schools when strict consequences are levied against behavior. There will be “desperate impact statistics “ between the demographic groups. The improve your behavior to improve your group statistics answer will not be allowed. “Desperate impact statistics “ a Ted Kennedy legal gift that keeps on giving! However let’s continue to worship the Kennedys.
They mispelled eletentiary.
Teachers have done it in the past. But in today’s litigious culture, administrators won’t permit it.
The authorities would send the child to prison except that’s already the purpose of the school.
Sigh. I went to elementary school in the 1950s and early 1060s. The thought that this would happen then is absolutely ludicrous.
I would hire a private lawyer if I were one of those two teachers - I already know from experience the union won’t help - the admin will side with the parents who support the little felons.
This is a clear violation of a school’s first duty: Safety of its students and staff - they sure as hell repeat that often enough.
Hope both teacher prevail in court with enough to retire comfortably. The entire system needs to be held accountable.
Is it them, Yogi?
The teachers should have been alert as soon as little Rashid said “You dissin’ me? YOU DISSIN’ ME?”.
“2 teachers stabbed in assault involving student at Harford County elementary school”. Not very hot for teacher.

Stabbing in a school in Maryland?
Yawn...
In other news, the sun appeared in the sky this morning...
Did their parents give them the knives and say take out a couple white folks and we’ll up your allowance?
I will always remember one day when I was in the 5th grade, sitting in the science classroom, and a cow-like female “student” tried to stab an elderly female teacher with a pencil.
Fortunately, a male teacher was present who thwarted the attack, the teacher wasn’t hurt, the “student” was dispatched to reform school, and was never seen again.
The “student” was larger and heavier that her classmates, indicating that she had been held back at least once.
Now “students” are promoted automatically regardless of their academic achievement and behavioral history. To do otherwise would be considered racist and the teacher would suffer rather than the “student”.
I heard of the story but didn’t know where the school was. It’s 2 miles from my house in a very nice and somewhat trendy city called Havre de Grace, MD. Certainly now where you’d expect such a crime to occur.
