Safety is never guaranteed. HOWEVER, at least here in Virginia...ANY school certified by the DOE is required BY CODE to provide a safe learning environment. In the case of MY SON...that did not happen because his assaults were not one time incidents. Clearly, you're missing the point and are confused by my comments.

The only guarantee for safety is to SPEAK UP and FIGHT. Hold the school and the pep accountable! Stop subscribing to the apathetic view that the school will never change or the answer is put them in the private school. Simply NONESENSE! It's happening in EVERY SCHOOL! I pay almost 40 K a year for that kid to go to a CHRISTIAN PRIVATE SCHOOL that you high in such high esteem. I too attended one of the best Private schools in the Country...the Hill School! Balderdash to private schools being a sanctuary! Who believe that nonsense! It happens anywhere because parents or general citizens think it's someone else's problem.

OK, let's just bury our heads and become liberal democrats while we're at it.

The only real guarantee is to hold the bully accountable and prosecute the little creep. If that's not enough, sue the poop out of each and every school system until the get the message. The schools have NO RIGHT to withhold information from the parents and certainly have NO RIGHT to not involve law enforcement in this regard. That is the missing piece. School systems, like the administrators who run them, feel they are above the law and what happens in a school is no concern to either the parents or law enforcement. Well...in the case of my son, the school found out how quickly they were wrong as the deputy arrested the 14 year old out of his math class and placed in him handcuffs for all to see. THAT my friend is safety.
The rest is simply bull excrement.

Out....
