The school has reported 22 fights so far in the 2010-2011 school year.
“One of my friends got in a fight, but he didn’t start it. He was defending himself,” freshman Andy Opel said.
In response to the escalating fights, the school district hired the Teen Conflict Resolution Team to help students solve disagreements through non-violent solutions.
"Students have to learn how to solve life’s problems without violence, and this program will teach our students just that,” teacher Mr. Brown said.
After March 23, any student caught fighting on campus must complete a TCRT non-violence workshop, in addition to normal disciplinary actions.
"Now students will get suspended and be forced to attend this program,” Opel said. “That’s just too much.”
