"If I have to put a police officer next to every kid, we'll do it. Maybe Mayor Bloomers has the right idea: "You WILL learn or you will be shot! This will be your only warning!"
To: Jimmyclyde
It's unfortunate that parents of the decent children in these schools (who would probably love to send their children to private schools if they could afford to do so)have to have their children subjected to a medium-security prison atmosphere.
There has to be a better way -- homeschooling or on-line courses for those who want to avoid that type of atmosphere.

I'm sure the miscreants won't learn, but at least they'll be contained.

And to be accurate, the Mayor should dispose of the name Public School and call it a Correctional Facility.

Evander Childs HS and PS113 in the Bronx were bad schools in the 50's. I can see not much has changed. The 'projects' ruined that whole area. IMHO

But SWAT teams carry guns, and isn't it illegal to have guns on school property?
Some of the "bad" kids could take them away from the cops and use them against them.

Five Brooklyn high schools made the list: South Shore, Canarsie, Thomas Jefferson, Sheepshead Bay and Franklin K. Lane. That's funny, Sheepsead Bay HS is exactly 3 blocks away from my house. Jefferson used to be real bad. You don't hear about them in the news that often anymore, but the year before I started HS, 3 people got shot over there, which cause NYC to install metal detectors and x-ray machines in about a dozen of schools the next year, which is the year I started. That included my HS. Oh, the joy!

I just had a funny visual of 10 swat team officers coming into a classroom with automatic weapons drawn, faces covered with ski masks and frog marching a 14 year old math nerd away for getting a calculus problem wrong...
Sentence: 1 week of gym class playing full court basketball with the brothers.
That'll teach em.

I went to parochial schools 1-12, but I remember talking to my public school buddies many years ago and being glad I didn't go to their schools. Because they would tell me about all the "nasty" teachers at their schools and all the mean things they did to kids who acted up. That was forty years ago, and times change. No kid, private or public, was allowed to disrupt classes in those days. When they decide to restore strict discipline with serious consequences for disrupters, things will improve for public schools. But I wouldn't hold your breath waiting for it to happen.

Bump.
We are headed into some serious trouble with this country for lack of dicipline.

What a graet idea. This SWAT team effort worked out so well, and gathered all that community support:
