Nine students were suspended and three were hospitalized after a brawl at Valley Center High School. The mother of one suspended student says school administrators could have prevented the melee if they had taken threats leading up to the fight seriously.
“Part of our investigation included exactly what happened prior to the fight and what was known and not known," McGowan said,"Right now, our investigation is concluding, but still looking into aspects. Students already know their consequences for their behaviors. We have been made aware of the social media screenshot threat and referred that to the Sheriff's Department. I encourage parents and students to report any threats.
In an email to NBC 7, a spokesperson for the Sheriff's Department said,"Detectives were at the school last week following up on leads, obtaining additional statements, and evidence from the school. They are still trying to piece everything together. No arrests or charges have been made at this time. The investigation is still ongoing.""I really wish there were more safety protocols done. I really wish staff would have taken the threats serious," she said.
Leonard said the fight was not racially motivated, but the Sheriff’s department and school district have not confirmed that information to NBC7. A regularly scheduled school board meeting is set to take place Thursday.
