Totally agree Andros (and agree that this reads more like an Enquirer article than WW) I was a teacher so I know and respect that privacy for students and families must be a top concern. But we just weren't told ANYTHING. Not a word. All we knew was that one student had been out since before Winter break. The kids believed it was for things in addition to the hit-list (things that have no place being listed on this forum.)  They were told by a teacher that the student was coming back and any questions and concerns were to be taken up with administration. However, the parents weren't told anything. 

We know the school wants the best from and for all students. They are incredible educators. I want to go to school there! We like Mary a lot. Still, with the nature of the world today people want to know that their kids are safe. They want to know that they are. I think maybe even a short email saying that everything checked out would have sufficed. No private details needed.
