A friend of mine works for the Anaheim Unified School District in Orange County, California. They are doing the same thing at her school.

race-related attacks between black students and white studentsCan you provide backstory on this?
To: Behind Liberal Lines
nor shall any State deprive any person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law 14th amendment
It seems to me that in the case of a public high school to which children are compelled on pain of incarceration to attend cannot deprive the students of their "liberty" without at least doing so with "due process of law. "Surely, locking children in a room deprives them of their liberty. And surely, no due process of law has been observed.

Another “feel-good” liberal response designed to fit the political correctionists’ agenda.

Leave to educators to over react. does everyone wear a skirt up there?
To: Behind Liberal Lines
In my very conservative town, all the doors leading to classrooms were locked from the outside. Of course like most public buildings the doors are always open from the inside.

A mother is accusing the Ithaca school district of failing to protect her child from threats and racism. The state human rights commission is taking the case to the New York State Supreme Court. "She was attacked on the school bus. She stepped off the school bus to speak to a friend and someone spat out of the window onto her face, says Amelia Kearney, the victims mom.
"One of the boys held up a sign that said, KKK I hate n****ers
they said they had a gun with her name on it."
After writing letters, emails and making phone calls to the Ithaca School District,Amelia Kearney went to the New York State Division of Human Rights to get help for her daughter.
"This is not the only incident. So many others go unchecked its the bravery of Amelia Kearney that brings this to light today, says Sarenda Lourdes of the Race Liberation Alliance, ACTION.

Assuming the allegations are true, why did Ms. Kearney continue placing her child on that bus, and in that school? Parental neglect is a far bigger contributor to Epiphany's problem than the inaction of some administrator in a far off office.

does everyone wear a skirt up there?No. It's too cold much of the year. But they do wear panties.

Apart from false imprisonment, kidnapping, and violation of the fire code I can’t see much wrong with this....

It will take a few rooms full of children being burned alive for them to reconsider this foolish idea. I wish I was being sarcastic.
I'm not being sarcastic: I remember reading that in Saudi Arabia (or was it Afghanistan??) two or three years ago, a girls' school caught on fire, but the religious police locked the doors and prevented the students from getting out because some of them were not "properly" covered. The Ithaca school committee should dig out some old news stories before locking any classroom doors.
