2 boys spend 1 year and 2 years in juvenile detention rather than tell the police who the killer was. Their mother think it is ok because it wasn't THEIR responsibility to help the police.
I loved this "Michael White spent about 11 months out of jail on bond, but his bond was revoked in June 2010 when he pushed a police officer and threatened administrators at his school, according to court records. Ennis was denied bond from the start because he had a juvenile record in California." In other words, they both acted up in school in addition to being upstanding citizens.
I currently have 9 ex students from the previous 3 years in jail: 4 for taking other people's property and 5 for selling drugs. All are repeat offenders. Two have graduated from high school. The rest should have but didn't. We don't talk about those statistics.

Remember Central Falls HS where all the teachers were fired to "rebuild" the school? A science teacher talks about her decision to teach there. And to leave. She references the "Restoration Project." You can find additional information here.

it's times like these that I always like to add; "and we are expected to make these students proficient, and if not WE are considered bad teachers"
