Palm Beach County Parents and Police to DeSantis-‘Safety of Our Children is at Risk’
A group of parents and school police officers from Palm Beach County sent a letter to Florida Governor Ron DeSantis detailing a list of severe and long-standing problems with policing in The School District of Palm Beach County.When the letter was submitted to the DeSantis administration, the group asked for whistleblower status, so I won’t reveal any individuals involved in writing or sending the letter. Still, I’ve spoken to some of them, I know who they are, and I can confirm that it is a “group.” I’ve been told it’s “hundreds and hundreds” of police and parents, but I can’t guarantee the exact number.
The letter details the same problems that have gone unaddressed since last year. Not enough school police, low pay, lousy equipment, terrible training, and a fortune being paid to outside police officers to cover unprotected schools because the school board won’t admit they don’t know how to run a police department and cede control of the school police to one of the most respected sheriff’s in the state, Palm Beach County’s Ric Bradshaw.

The Letter
A relative of mine who teaches in Palm Beach County school has had their life threatened by a student TWICE in the last two years. Police reports were filed both times. Absolutely nothing was done either time. This last time, a student threated " We gonna pop yo ass" (in front of the whole class), the principle of the school was seen high fiving and fist pumping the exact same student who made the threat a day AFTER my relative had reported the incident to their principle !!! Hmmmm, are some of our principles actually promoting and benefiting from gang activity at their schools? Our Palm Beach County school administration is useless. NO WAY would I let my child attend public school in Palm Beach County now.
ReplyDeleteI taught 17 years. Palm Beach School District has been woke before woke was known. We PUSHED the obuma agenda the year before he was elected.
ReplyDeleteBottom line is it takes two parents to care for a kid not grandma or auntie, that’s what’s going on today the kids are shuffled around without any care. They are lost before they even begin school.
