These children today need to realize the things they say, is not a joke. My daughter who is a student at EPHS told me what was going on....verbal beef= guns..this is a cruel world we live in.

Joey, calm down. Read the story, even between the liens, à rummor, no one saw a gun, no one was shot, bullies at work again saying things they won't back up. PCSO is there, and as à former teacher there, thoes bullies run and hide when the halls are full of Sheriff's, I can testify to. Pulling your child makes them behind in their work, which many never make up. Then the parent thats been absent all year shows up 3 weeks before end of year wanting make up work. Not in my class.

Thank goodness my child is not in your class! Sounds like you missed a few lessons of your own. Your punctuation and spelling are horrible! :-/
And YES, a parent has every right to know when and why security is increased at their child's school! If you are a staff member that thinks otherwise you don't belong in the position that you're in.

Michelle I', so sorry for not using spell ckeck and quickly type this, but only one was perfect and they put Him on wood. OMG let your child grow up and cut the cord, or baby them until they get put in jail, they pry them out again. If every time someone said " I'll put a booth up your a@@" then Archie Bunker would have been a long time stay. Then then daily threats in the hallways between class's you never hear about. Want to just home school the lil buger's, don't ya? You have no clue what goes on there during the day, UNLESS. ... you take a WEEK off and go to school every day with your child, and you can if you are brave enough, but your scared what would my child's friends think about that? Well a round minded parednt would say lets go, it will show I care.

I must say, I'm thoroughly impressed (sarcastic font) with the lack of positive support and representation you're showing on behalf of EPHS. Maybe that's why you are a FORMER teacher there? Young adults need positive guidance, without that they have a higher chance of seeking it from people and places that will guide them down the wrong path. You might be a former educator but as a parent I'm an example and educator for life. Because I choose so doesn't mean I haven't "cut the cord" or I'm an over bearing parent, it just means I'm a damn good one!

Thank you for your support Sid! I appreciate you!
