It’s crazy that this happened less than two weeks after the boys basketball took home the 6a state championship
Lawsuit!!!
The schools need employees where their one main job is being friendly and getting to know the students.
Especially those with problems.
Those that are always getting in trouble.
Along with those that all of a sudden change and are in trouble.
I was once hired to fix an entire 2,500 student high-school before it would be forced to close because of violence, drugs,gangs etc.
Seemingly good students that would all of a sudden do something wrong which seemed out of the norm.
Before just wanting to discipline them. Which was my main job in actuality. My conversation would go into finding out if someone close had passed away, a divorce are anything in that direction. A bad injury within the family, a break-up with someone, or any other situation. Including a problem with police, drugs, rape, or anything traumatic.
You'd be amazed at how many kids act out as a cry for help, understanding, or a need to talk, and to get help figuring things out.
As for the constantly problem students. I'd ask about their family life. One parent, sibling problems, feelings of being alone, not cared about, hunger, no friends, anger issues and not understanding how to deal with them.
I'm not talking about getting a psychologist involved.
These kinds of trained individuals, are trained to label kids in record time and shuffle on to someone else, and generally don't care about the individual child and the kids know it. They have been labeled and mistreated because of those labels most of their lives. It's a big part of their problem and effects them everyday in some way.
I'm talking about actually taking an interest in the child. Non official so they feel they can open up.
And like what I was taught to call them. A "Dutch uncle" approach.
Talk to them like a "Dutch uncle. Someone that loves and cares about them like a good parent, but isn't a parent, but is a loving family member. Someone they feel cares enough about them that won't lie to them and will tell them the real truth, good or bad, will give only good advice they can rely on and trust. Someone that only wants to help them because they are important and isn't RECORDING everything. Only listening, helping, talking through problems, concerns,and just trying to help because they actually care.
This is part of how I COMPLETELY changed a school and made it a normal nice place to teach and be a student, while reinforcing every rule and kids desires to learn with hopes of a better future they individually wanted.
My techniques changed the students attitudes towards the school. Changed the teacher's attitudes towards the students, changed how the school employees at every lever viewed the students, teaching and the schools position and mission of how to go about education, dealing with students and why they were doing this.
You'd be shocked how many people in the schooling industry are not there thinking and understanding that EVERYTHING GOING ON IS 100% FOR THE STUDENTS and nothing else matters.
Without the students.
The school wouldn't need to exist.
Not even one job in the school would be needed, and not even the building would be needed.
It's all about students only and helping them get educated in whatever ways they need.
Nothing is off bounds.
If they need to learn about respect. THAT'S A JOB THE SCHOOL MUST FILL.
Same thing for teaching kids to play well with others, how to be a good looser and a good winner, how to deal with anger issues, or a loss in the family, how to count, read, and understand laws, their Rights, how to play successfully with other children and how to handle disputes in a friendly way and how to bargain with what you want combined with what others want, along with everything else that comes up in real life.
The school system's job must be to create happy well rounded citizens that will eventually live, work, play and run this nation.
Making them criminals totally goes against every part of this.
Allowing them to think they are anything less then the best them they are trying to become. Is totally counter productive and harmful.
Most Schools have lost sight of the eventual prize they are working towards. SUCCESSFUL KIDS THAT ARE WORKING TOWARDS BECOMING SUCCESSFUL CITIZENS, PARENTS, EMPLOYEES AND REPUTABLE PARTS OF SOCIETY.
Teachers think their job is about them.
Teachers have zero importance if their students aren't happy and learning to love learning in general and whatever subject matter they are teaching.
This and much more is what's needed to fix in most all schools nationwide.
You want to stop school shooting. TAKE AWAY THE REASONS THEY ARE HAPPENING AND THE CAUSES BEHIND THOSE REASONS.
I had found it was nearly as easy I thought it would be.
The students wanted and welcomed the changes. Not all at first.
But most quickly started to realize how much better things became for them personally. Others took more time and focused energy.
Kids WANT their lives fixed.
Kids generally want to be liked and to fit in.
The problem many times is they don't know how to properly do this and only know how to get BAD ATTENTION which is the core of most problems.
No child should get out of the early grades not knowing the difference between one number and another number.
I eventually was working with 11th and 12th graders that didn't understand anything about numbers.
I had access to 38 such students. Long story. The school system had them LABELED as unreachable.
I wasn't a believer for number of good obvious reasons.
With what I know about people etc. In less then a month. Only working with each of them individually for a few minutes every few days. Along with some worksheets I produced. I was successful with every one and made them capable of being able to count to a million any time they wanted as promised.
Then with those that further agreed. In the next week I taught every one of them, over a dozen about understanding fractions.
Labels harm children to their core.
The smarter kids quickly learn how to hide behind them AND DO NOTHING.
By the age they realize they screwed themselves. It's to late.
And they realize they've destroyed their lives and don't know what to do.
These many times are SMART and even VERY SMART KIDS.
I had found that the worst kids were the smartest in most cases.
These will become the dangerous and the criminal leaders.
America can't afford loosing so many of our smartest children this way to crime, criminal organizations, jails, prisons, overdose and all the other ways they find to finish destroying their lives and society in the process.
Help fix the properly.
And more police, labels, and harmful treatment are not the way..
These are the things and ways that caused this problem.
And to keep doing them and to even think to keep doing them harder is pure insanity.
And, of course the kid has to be "demonic black"
Cherry Creek Public Schools expelled this kid because he was a threat to everyone's safety. Denver Public Schools expelled Denver Police from their schools back in 2020 because the Denver community hates cops: yes, this was during the 2020 BLM Riots. DPS knew what they had on their hands when they accepted this boy into their building. DPS put everyone's lives at stake for funding and virtuous-publicity.
If you have a troubled child at home, your house should contain not a single gun.
Wait…….huh?!?! Sadly, this is an example where "extreme" liberal policy can cost lives.
Weird how someone can be expelled from fighting with fists but this kid got to go to school each day for weapons in pat downs.
This really hurt s me I went to east in the 70$ I graduated from there in 1979, it wasn't never like that, but as the years have gone by, this is ghetto as hell, the neighborhood is horrible!! If anyone knows anything about Denver Colorado, they know east high school is on Colfax the worst street in Denver Colorado, no wonder people are getting shot! What do they expect?? The city of Denver Colorado is gone down the tubes, it's ghetto as hell, except for jonh f Kennedy high school, that's a nice neighborhood! , But, east high school, west high school,north high school, Abe Lincoln high school, manual high school and George Washington high school s , that neighborhood use to be nice, they are all ghetto s now, I grew up here I know
Republicans are spreading hate, violence and lies for their own pleasure.
They are pushing for permit less gun carry in the public.
We need majority of Democrats in Congress to pass strict gun regulations.
I was just at this school last week for an event, the school didn’t seem to have decent security whatsoever
Guns entered the schools when prayer in schools was voted out.
that is the last old ABC News Logo in this video that they put it in
How much you want to bet biden is gonna open his mouth about "assault weapons", when this one was a handgun. Media and politicians want to vilify regular citizens from the actions of a few.
It could not have had a better ending. I’m sure this is the teen’s first brush with the law. Denver has turned into a Democrat Hell Hole, nothing but destructive Democrat policies for decades. Vote Democrat!
The school screwed up big time.
There was an assembly that had just begun at the time with around 1,700 students in the auditorium. I think his goal was to shoot up the assembly with everyone in one space. Those administrators prevented what could have been something so much worse.
What were these people doing? He should have never been allowed back in the school if there was that kind of threat. That is one of the big problems in schools today. If a student is a threat then it needs to be documented and then kicked out of school forever. The only job of teachers is to teach not raise/discipline other peoples kids. If your kid is a threat then they need to be kicked out of school and never come back. Otherwise it is not my kid that is going to get killed
BLACKS ARE THE PROBLEM IN ALL AMERICAN CITIES.
The real problem is that the democrats want to defund the police and resource officers. This is a democratic state. This is what you voted for. Therefore YOU are to blame for the violence. Keep defunding the police and resource officers. It's the democratic way.
Suspect found dead
WHY KEEP THIS KID COMING DAILY…THEY NEVER NEEDED HIM TO KEEP BEING ON CAMPUS HE DID EXACTLY WHAT THEY WERE WORRIED HE WOULD DO 🤯
Woke movements kill. DPS school board in 2020 decided SRO were racist. School board should be held liable. Every single one of them should be fired.
I searched "Most recent US school shooting" and the most recent was just 16 hours ago. Wow can't imagine being a student in the US.
This student was under a "pat-down plan", because Colorado is run by Left-wing, Progressive, idiots.
They belong back in Africa. They cannot be civilized. As long as we allow them in our society, we're going to keep seeing these types of situations.
Need to supply law enforcement this is outrageous.
THIS IS RIDICULOUS!!!!!
GIVE THE NAME AND DESCRIPTION OF THE SHOOTER. THEY ARE PUTTING PEOPLE'S LIVES IN JEOPARDY!!!!
Great news everyone!!! He blew off his rotten cantaloupe!!! He’s dead!!! Yayyyyy!!!! Won’t be wasting MY tax payer dollars sitting in prison. Bye bye!!! (The news won’t report on this though because the shooter is black.) (WAS, black, excuse me )🤭
Looks like The kid went and killed him self after :/ I hope the 2 victims recover and don’t have any long term damage. I also hope the family of the kid can heal, im sure this will be a hard time for them 🙁
3 most common things in America right now are school shootings, minorities being killed by police officers and mass shootings.
Thank heaven I'm not American and don't have to worry about my grandchildren . It's such a regular thing that the rest of the so called First World isn't shocked anymore .
has every single school shooting in the past decade been done by a male? Serious inquiry??
"The dilution of the school's ability to discipline students is a safety issue" Best description. Policies so focused on not hurting dangerous or disruptive kids feelings, but have no problem on putting on the rest of the students, that actually want to learn, in danger. The wrongs of misinterpreting "inclusion" when it has a hidden agenda
