September 17, 201511 yr MIT, the kids dream school, has asked him to come take a tour and said "you are the kind of student we want".
September 17, 201511 yr The press in front of the kids home. WOW! As you can see its not just local. The school needs to do and say something soon to get out of hot water.
September 17, 201511 yr This looks bad. However, schools are bound by strict confidentiality laws so not commenting is often the best option. They could comment on general policies and procedures but not specifics. It is also forbidden to disclose the details of the school safety plan so the school administrators won't be able to comment on why they didn't evacuate either. I bet the school would love to explain their side but they can't. (I'm not saying they handled it correctly. I'm saying that there is generally much more to stories like this)

September 17, 201511 yr Then the school — and all schools and other governmental entities who shroud themselves in similar manner — need to adopt better policies. What policy would you suggest so that school officials can talk about details of specific situations with someone other than that student's parent or another educator who has a need to know? I did see a police officer in the picture and assume that he is who put the cuffs on. I don't believe that the police are bound by the same confidentiality policies and laws that educators are.
September 17, 201511 yr Author That pretty much sums it up for me :lol2: Says a Trump supporter. :lol2:
September 17, 201511 yr Says a Trump supporter. :lol2: I don't really support anyone. I'm the least political person in the world. Thanks to Trump, I'm at least paying attention this time. As for the current President, I think some of his decision-making is questionable, if not down right frightening.
