To Molino Jim,
There is someone living on site, but they have a life too. They are not required to be there 24/7 watching the school.
This incident, more than likely, was done late at night when normal people are sleeping and I suspect it was done by some young kids just acting stupid. I hope they catch them and make them work at the school …in front of all the other kids. Maybe if it embarrasses them a little – they may think twice before doing such a stupid act again. I feel sorry for the parents of these kids who will end up paying for their kids stupidity!
I thought someone was living on site in a trailer that’s to the rear of the school.
Maybe if we start punishing the people more severely, we will start to deter crime. A slap on the wrist, even if they are caught does not deter crime. Just remember, the only ones that have to fear severe punishment are the criminals, not your law abiding citizen. Make them pay dearly.
This will be expensive to repair. Parents, get out your wallets – someone will have to pay big dollars.
How sad is that…we have a lot of friends that teach there and they work very hard to give the children a great education. We live in such a small community it is so hard to believe someone would be that narrow minded to do something that will make the staff have to work harder this week.
Seems that just before school starts, and again at Christmas, there is vandalism at the schools. Not a good thing for the school personnel who are working hard in preparation for students to return and it is always expensive to the district to make repairs and to recover from such senseless acts.
Remember many years ago when the workers at Warrington Middle School found the hallways flooded with water. Some kids — who were caught — turned on the fire hoses and left them flowing out water. Big time water damage and very costly to repair as water from second floor went down to first. One of the kids involved was, if I remember right, the son of a Judge. Not always the unwatched kids who get into mischief.
wow lots and lots of cars drive by there someone had to have noticed something…..stupid people have nothing better to do than something like this as if it isn’t hard enough……….I hope they find them and perhaps make them clean schools for free ha……….
This is so sad. I hope the many cameras in the hallways got all the action recorded so whoever did this is caught. What are people thinking?
