420... brah

Columbine changed how schools run, how teachers think, how students are perceived and treated. How do you think your life has been impacted by school violence?
It's impacted my life because i have too always wonder if my school is safe enough. I have to watch out for "weird" unhappy individuals and do something about kids getting pick on. I just think its stupid that kids resort to such a permanant punishment for their fellow students that tease them. Also school administration should pay attention too bullying in school. I was teased in elementary and middle school but i never once though about actually killing someone. Parents should teach their kids too be strong.

I know that 4/20 is not only know for Columbine. What other significance does it hold for you and why?
Not too me, but most of the world: 4/20 is national weed smoking day? I think? I dont celebrate it. I was sleeeping yesterday. And 4/20 is also hitlers bday or deathday? idk really. None of these are significant to my beliefs.

I liked your thoughtful response to how life has changed in the culture of schools for you. I absolutely agree that schools should actively weed out bullies. For too long, we were passive or others were... but regardless, I suppose that in cases where parents are absent and the school is unaware... wild. I hope that I teach Quinn resilience and at the same time advocate for him if he is being bullied and get those kids in wicked trouble! Kidding, sort of:)
