Question Posted Wednesday December 14 2005, 2:52 pm
Today in school they had assemblys for each grasde level well it was all about fighting. this is my first year at my school because i moved I'm a junoir well the school i go to now has not had a fight until this year like we've like 3-4 fights already i mean idk to me that not realy alot my old school we had tons of fights i mean constantly fights some would be bad and some would not. point here is my school and the people in it make this big deal about the fights saying they are going to end up being a bad school and what not. To me i want people to stop talking about it cause its driving me crazy i think they are over reacting about it.
I don't know if i should just let it bother me and aggravate me or just let it blow by.
- is it really all that bad having 3-4 fights this year.? counting they havent had any in 6 years?

But since this school year started, we've been having ATLEAST one or two a day. I think it's horrible and I have no idea what has gotten over everyone. Many people made a big deal about it because we weren't used to having so many fights. But, everyone is getting used to it now which is not a good thing at all. It's just sad, to me anyways, that people do feel the need to fight at school so much.
I don't think that constant fighting is something that everyone should get used to because it's ridiculous. So yes, for a school that usually doesn't have fights, 3-4 is a big deal. And your school Apes and counselors should start doing something about it now before it gets crazy.

Fights in my school are rare. My Principal has a no tolerance rule for fights. First fight and your out 10 days, and your gonig out of the school in handcuffs. And if a teacher gets hit...lets not go there. [ eternitysofbliss's advice column | Ask eternitysofbliss A Question ]

The school gets a reecord of how much violence goes on in the school, and parents and other people suchas the school board start to worry. They might get less money for the things that they want because they're getting a reputation.
I would say not to even worry about it as long as they're not taking actions that have to do with you and your happiness. Yes, it may be dumb that they're "making a big deal out of it" but it doesn't have to be a "big deal" to you as long as your not the one in fights. Hope it helped!
