I graduated from DHS last year and I always liked going to school there. I was in the Tuscumbia School Systems for my entire education. Last year a boy threatened to blow up the school an he had a hit list; however, the school was not closed and the boy was not suspened. I always thought that if you made a threat you were suspended. More than half of the students didn't go to school the day that it was suppose to happen.
So this is why I am telling you all of this. My brother goes to Deshler High School or did. He attended Tuscumbia his entire life. This is his senior year and he started dating this girl. After they broke up she started harassing him. She was doing things like wearing his clothes to school, and harassing his new girlfriend as well. My brother went to the counselor. (Which I thought this was what they want the students to do if they have a problem.) He said that if they didnt take care of the problem then he would take care of it himself. The counselor went and told the principal. They said he made a threat. They called the police. They said that since he was failing two of his classes then they had to expell him.
First of all I can see how they are saying he made a threat, but I dont see why they expelled him. He didn't say he was going to kill the girl. My mom pointed out that the student last year didn't get suspended, and they said that that students threat was on paper. WTC?? How is that any different?? I would think that would be worse since that student also had a hit list. That student is still attending the school and my brother is at home because my mom withdrew him before he was expelled.
Today the school is on lock down. Someone has said it was because my brother got expelled and had mental problems and I am guessing that they think he is going to come to the school and do something. My brother is in his bed, and he doesn't even have a clue about the school being on lock down.
I would just like your opinions on this please.
