NCLB? Sorry, but that has nothing to do with it. We are coddling criminals. If the criminals are people “of color,” there are liberals who will attack the victim and make endless excuses for the criminal. If the victim is a person “of color” as well, the liberals will dance around it until nobody pursues it any more. The victim will be ostracized for making the “community” look bad and will eventually back off out of fear and exhaustion. It has nothing to do with NCLB.
NCLB causes alot of problems, but it does not erase criminal complaints or convictions.
I agree that the criminal act has nothing to do with NCLB.
When it comes to school violence, principals and other school administrators stick their heads in the sand. They don’t report school crimes or suspend/expel students because if they do, their school could be hit with the “Dangerous” tag.
In a way, a principal’s hands are tied. If they do their jobs, report the crimes and get these kids out of the schools - they’re basically throwing their careers away. Damned if they do something, Damned if they don’t.
On the other hand, if the students know that they can get away with anything without consequence - they will.
The teachers are caught in the crossfire - literally.
