There is an ascendence of belief that all matters of interpersonal conflict must be dealt with through non-police solutions. (This school used to have an on-site officer who was removed years ago.) It’s also probably bad for a school in terms of education regulations to have students, teachers, and admins regularly reporting assaults on campus. There’s likely a healthy dose of magical thinking involved as well about how to intervene when students are behaving anti socially. I don’t have a simple answer. I’m mostly surprised that the teacher’s union tacitly supports this sort of outcome.
