Clovis Unified School District...Clovis, CA. One of the highest rated school districts in this State...absolutely zero-tolerence on a number of issues including knives or any other weapons, dress code (can't even wear a FSU Bulldog shirt because there is a gang in Fresno called the Bulldogs), etc.
Next door is Fresno Unified, many times larger...allows Bulldog shirts, has "mediation" for Little Johnny and his phuked up parents whenever rules are broken. Despite a huge tax base, one of its high schools is about to lose its accreditation and another one was closed a few weeks ago because of a knife fight between student.
Zero-tolerence, when it is enforced at a school...works. Bull**** case-by-case approaches don't.
Why don't you offer proof at a school where it doesn't work...again, when it is enforced. Please name the school district as I have.
