Teachers and staff say there have been numerous uproars that turned into outright brawls this week, raising safety concerns and taking away from the learning environment.
A series of unruly outbursts and constant fights among high schoolers at Academy Park High School in Sharon Hill, Pennsylvania has administrators and police trying to figure out how to bring tempers down.
Teachers and staff say the recent brawls this week are raising safety concerns and taking away from the learning environment. Action News obtained multiple videos from fights at the school this week that resulted in a lockdown. One video shows a group of male students participating in a fight while dozens more watched. A staff member tried to intervene as well as a school resource officer.SEE ALSO:"I've seen a progressive decline over the years. It's like mob mentality -- one person starts acting out, like they all join in. But it's frustrating that it's almost where you don't get alarmed anymore," an Academy Park High School parent told Action News.
"This is absolutely the worst. I feel like the seniors are not college ready. They will tell you that. I don't know what they are doing to make it better now. I don't know if they are trying to implement something for the future, but something better definitely has to happen, like now," said another parent.Copyright © 2022 WPVI-TV. All Rights Reserved.
