Four school committee members in Brockton, Massachusetts, are calling on the National Guard to restore order to the city’s embattled high school following reports of daily fistfights, rampant drug use, and students having sex in empty classrooms.
“Over the past few months, our high school has experienced a disturbing increase in incidents related to violence, security concerns, and substance abuse,” committee members Joyce Asack, Tony Rodrigues, Ana Oliver, and Claudio Gomes wrote in a Feb. 15 letter to the mayor and school committee chairman.
