Assistant Principal, Conley, Gets Caught in the Middle...
Another disturbing video of a violent altercation in Saratoga High School has been shared with Moving Saratoga Forward.
Meanwhile, the Administration is claiming that there has not been an increase in violence on campus this year.
Superintendent Michael Patton was quoted as saying that there have only been 4 incidents of violence since December 21'.
Parents on the other hand suggest otherwise. Lisa Adams, a parent of a child in Saratoga High School was quoted in the Daily Gazette;
"My junior has described almost daily brawls at the high school. She also said her son has described students vaping in the bathroom, selling drugs and even defecating on bathroom floors."
And despite the concerns of the Teachers Union, Board President Emeka suggested that there wasn't a problem because she isn't hearing directly from the people who have experienced it firsthand.
“Students and parents are upset and rightly passionate about safety in their schools. However, I’m not hearing it directly from people who have experienced it firsthand. I am not negating any child who says they can’t go to the restroom, but I have to hear directly from those seeing violent behavior themselves.”
We lead the world in violence, incarceration, obesity,drugs, divorce, what do you expect!!! Plus the pandemic
