Federal court rules that schools are not liable for bullying.

3. Because the school is public....

And because school is compulsory to a certain age, schools are a bit hamstrung by law and funding. This is why the business model does not work in academia....unlike charter schools, public schools have to take every student that lands on our door step.

Our district is large enough to have an alternative school that can be utilized. But again we are pressured to keep this as a last ditch.

We are an inner city school and we deal with gang issues every day. And we have to deal with bullying that goes on outside of school that we fear we can be held accountable for that. (cyber bullying).

We try everything, but I am here to tell you, some kids do not understand the gift they are being given. Wish we had more vocational education for these kids. Not every child is a Fullbright Scholar.
