Parents press for solutions to violence in Baltimore County schools as board elections near

School fights posted on social media, reports of bullying, and the discovery of loaded guns on campus have sparked a debate over whether Baltimore County schools are doing enough to combat school violence. The school system, however, said the rate of violence has decreased overall and that no student who breaks the rules goes unpunished. Dissatisfied with the school’s response, parents have held a town hall meeting, gathered for a rally and called for change at school board meetings.
