BBMI agree with Santa Clarita being a great place...it's hard to imagine things actually hitting this close to home...and I always figured if it would be anywhere it would be at a different school. But then I think of the other schools, and they have all been in places where no one would expect...cities and towns that are "safer" than average...which makes it all that more frustrating when something like this happens...
These seem to happen more in public schools...in private there is less security, does anyone have any thoughts on this? I don't think kids are safer regardless of where they go to school, I honestly think its a luck factor sadly if something like this happens.
Private schools have a lot more freedom to kick scary students out. It’s a lot harder in public schools for a variety of reasons. Years ago I was a JA advisor in a school district that openly swapped violent students to a different district school. Including a girl who after being transferred pulled a knife on another student. That student reported her, the school called the knife-puller’s mother who responded by waiting in the parking lot when school let out to beat the reporting student up herself. They’d run out if schools to transfer her to so they simply let her stay and terrorize the innocent student.
Feel compelled to add this was NOT in Colorado, though for all I know the same thing may happen here too.
