In my high school, the smallest boy on the football team was my best friend - 6" 1" and 185 lbs. Our center was the shortest guy at 5' 5" 230 lbs. Our middle line backer was 6' 6" 250 lbs solid muscle farm boy known as "Tree" (his last name was Birch)
While none of those boys were involved in the following fight, I did witness a fight at my school that sent 4 teachers and two police officers to the hospital along with the two boys. It was racially motivated and both boys were sent to state lockup for kids for attempted murder. I was later told that both boys had multiple broken bones.
The problem with the adults was that they individually tried to break up the fight and both boys turned on them. It was not until they ganged up on the boys and cops went in swinging their clubs at anything that moved.
In short, the size of some kids in school today would make the use of pepper spray and taser a prudent first response.

"I really have no idea what public schools are like nowadays."
Ummm, no you don't.
I get really mad at my husband at times for stepping into the middle of a fight. He's not overly tall, 5'6' and the farm boys around here are large boys. So far he's managed just with the force of his voice and personality no physical force needed. However, he has an old Navy trick that would put em down pretty quick provided he's fast enough to use it!
He says the worst ones are the ones between girls. They latch onto hair, body parts whatever and they don't let go!

..not one time out of 100 did the principle(we didn't have cops in school at that time.) Ever need to use pepper spray or a taser to break up a school fight. In the past 20 years, suit-happy lawyers have taken school disticts across the country to court for "failing to control the violence" along with other bogus demands.
The ACLU jumps into the fray in a heartbeat by representing the loser of a fight AGAINST the school district for failing to stop little Johnny from getting hurt.
School districts have been forced to add security just to stop the violence, much of it promoted by HipHop Gangsta bullcrap.
School districts these days are often in a no win situation. If they don't stop the fights, they get sued for millions for "allowing the situation to continue"
If they DO stop the fights, they get harassed, sued or criticized by people like yourself who apparantly has some bone to pick with security officers.
