Salem Middle School

I read these posts and I can't help but wonder what planet the parents are living on. Everyone is afraid to admit there is a racial problem at this school. I have had several daughters who have had the unfornuate experience of going to this school and the fear and harassment they have had to indure.I am not talking about how it use to be many years ago, or thats been gone since the new principal. Its the same now as it has ever been.The problem is that nobody in the governing body has the guts to tell the problem kids they are done. That it is a PRIVILAGE to go to school NOT A RIGHT no matter how loud some degenerate in her pajamas and curlers screams and shouts. All I hear is you are blowing this all out of proportion. NO I AM NOT!! My child should be afraid to go to school. She should not be afraid of reporting unsatisfactory conduct for fear of reprisal. The school authorities are powerless with the current status quo.The realiation moves of the school property. You say well call the police. You who say this never lived through the fear of being in the wrong place, caught alone with no where to run.You start to hope that they do find you and that it wont be so bad at least it will be over.
I lived through just such a time.I could not go anywhere without being scare I would get beat on. I was fortunate enough to have been a male. Like they say you kick a dog long enough he will bite. But even then the kids were scared of their parents finding out, not now. There is no disciplinary solution for this problem that does not include permanent expulsion. Until then, same as it ever was. Anybody with the guts to admit it probaly has a child who has come to them scared praying for some king of adult intervention, but they all have their heads in the sand.
