Gavin Posted July 31, 2013 Posted July 31, 2013 I agree with Joe D....welcome the new kids and lets hope they get a decent education. There will be some issues...but so what. The kids will sort out a new pecking order amongst themselves...they always do.

The kids will sort out a new pecking order amongst themselves...they always do. You are exactly right, the other side would be to stand out in front of the school with signs telling them to go away. I don't think we want to revisit that era, these are kids for goodness sake.

Old plug Posted July 31, 2013 Posted July 31, 2013 I wonder what these kids being bussed feel like. You walk up to a place that there has been trouble because you have to come there and its no fault if your own. The parents of your classmates have badmouthed you as well. I would be on guard and defensive before I got in the door. It would make you paranoid. You will be treated like a leaper. Rejection is something very hard to deal with. It will turn them into exactly what you think they are. But thats all ok isn't it. Were better than they are right. Its not our fault they are poor, live in a drug culture or come from a bad area. Well its not there fault either.
