these are high school students. they have spent most of their school years now with this type of fear. what do they do in these drills? what are they doing to try to better fortify or change the way schools address this threat going forward? >> we now sadly have a generation that has been raised on some form of active shooter lockdown drill. that's the first time in our nation's history that we have that group in our society, raised that way. you mentioned age appropriate drills, which is really essential. the purpose is not to scare young children. the drills have to be very age appropriate. yes, it's popular to use the animal that got loose on campus. it's fun. it can be whimsical. who is the best hider? who can stay more quiet so the bear doesn't hear us or the tiger doesn't hear us? i have seen that work very effectively. you need not scare young ildren. once you reach the high school population, they are attuned to the issue. that drill does have to happen, does have to include some smart concepts like, do we ru

we're monitoring a high school shooting in georgia. tures here of a number of students there on a football field in the middle of the school day. sheriff's office reports that there are some injuries and there is one person in custody. after this midmorning people have been killed and four injured. we have not independently verified that report and we're working to confirm that information. we did want to pass it along to you earlier. we did mention that witnesses say people were being loaded into helicopters to be taken for medical treatment, which, again, may speak to the severity of their injuries. the local sheriff's department says that one person is in custody, according to the ap. some people have been reported injured. we don't know how many people if they're students, teachers administrators, the severity of their injuries. at this point, students are still being released to their parents and guardians. this appears to be someone on a stretcher being led through a crowd to a waiting ambulance. again, skyfox is up above the scen

high school musical and there were no sports. jazz band was like the football team i was a jazz band drummer. before the concerts, we'd go the restaurant across the street and we're there eat asking silence falls across the restaurant and look at television screen and see someone walked into an elementary school in new town, connecticut, and murdered 20 children and six teacher. event titles adopted at birth out of bad situation and raised in white suburbia of orlando and like the 15-year-old and seeing images of kids made me anxious, vulnerable and scared. i ended up playing one of the worst shows because i was looking at exit signs behind me scared someone was going to walk in and shoot my friends, my family and myself. i ended up going to dc a few weeks later for the vigil for a memorial for those kids. and what really got to me was the night of the vigil was all these kids my age sitting around a hotel pool and first time everybody really started to open up about the siblings they had lost in the shooting. and across from me

apalachee high school in the winder in georgia. is you said 80 a kilometers north, east of atlanta, a suspect is in custody. they have confirmed that. so the situation is over and from the hospital. we have heard that they are treating is several gunshot victims . and this officer swamp is a campus and as we also saw from several, a pictures and videos on social media, the students were rushed for shelter in a football stadium and several videos from outside the school showed several ambulances. the launch active, a police presence, at least one medical helicopter could also be seen lifting a patient from the scene. and what we've also heard from the white house here in washington is it present by and has been briefed by his homeland security advisor on this tragic is shooting at the high school. and he said, and i quote that his administration will continue coordinating with federal, state, and local officials, as officials, as we receive more information. also the bureau of investigation in georgia is already taking up and the in

we are now at andisheh high school in ardabil. today , the school bell rang .e about 21,000 7th grade students in ardabil province today. being here with more enthusiasm and energy, as i was talking to them, the children have goals and plans for their future plans this year for the new academic year. i would like to inform you that this year, about 265 thousand students will be studying in 2600 schools in ardabil province, and since a few days ago, the schools have prepared new equipment and computers, about 18 thousand teachers are going to teach this year. in the name of allah, the most merciful, mr. hosseini , my respected colleague, i offer greetings, courtesy and respect to you and all the dear viewers of the international news network . you are receiving my audio and video from west azerbaijan, hedayat farooqi high school. i am in the company of dear elementary students 7. i am academic , and the enthusiasm of these dear students can really be described it is inevitable, as you can see , dear students want to start the new academic year with full enthusia

but they had access to high school. they had access to high school. it may in fact turn out to be somebody who's got the connection to that high school and from everything i've heard you say in the past and even today those are worth looking at. certainly we think the law enforcement for those instances where they have been able to step in and we hope that can continue with even more success. >> the key are the parents, or the caregiver, assuming this is a student. which we don't even know that yet. assuming it's a young person. wouldn't you end up getting one of these calls early and somebody is getting into, through the internet, social media, they are let down a dangerous path. i had one or two situations, think of one in particular in the terrorism world where the parents were not very cooperative. no other recourse but to arrest a young person. we didn't want to do it. but the parents were uncooperative. unfortunately that's really what it comes down to to stop something like this. we're not saying that that happened here but if you get one of th

like most young men and women you graduate high school, i did not know what i wanted to do. my grades were good, i got into most of the schools i wanted, not all of them. my mom had the idea to be an exchange student with sweden and australia. australia speaks english. and at the time i thought and l mcpherson may be on the beach. i got through the rotary club and i went. that year was the most important year of my life. i was lost, i was alone. i lost all my crutches. i was coming from a high school where i was catching green lights. four holes in one, girlfriend, money in my pocket. i hit a red light when i went to australia. no girlfriend, no car commit a curfew at 10:00. and i was in an odd situation but i had to figure it out. i learned more about my family, i learned more about texas, i learned more about america by being outside looking back at it. then i understood the previous 18 years. there is a program, is name is david who works with steven spielberg who does the exchanges and socioeconomic exchanges from palo alto to texas. just a brilliant idea. whether it is y

high. give it up. it's hard. so middle school and high school is where we see the most drop out in baseball. but here in san francisco, we're bucking the trend, we don't only talk the talk, because our rec and park and our mayor puts the resources where their heart is. there is a fund, safe and supportive place to do so. so, all of this incredible success, doesn't happen, you know, by luck. so some thank yous are in order. so thank you coach manny, coach glad, coach dan, coach julie, coach james, coach handro, getting worked autopsy y'all, for always treating our girls as ball players first and for your countless hours braving the fog, the cold, the heat so develop our players so the rest of the world has no choice but to treat them like ball players also. thank you coaches! [cheers and applause] thank you, families for trusting us with your amazing kids, for believing in your daughter's wildest dreams and for all the stinky sox you wash, the snacks you pack, all the driving, the bracelet making and most importantly the community you build, we're so grateful for you families, thank you, than

i do not believe that white plains has signed up for a high school program where high school students are automatically taken into apprenticeships. what happens is the unions come to the school, and they make their sales pitch. we want those kids. as far as getting them in, well, in new york city and on long island, they have that project pathways type situation to where the work gets done union on those schools, and those kids gain entry. if they don't put the kids to work, then they will void the agreement. now, you're the mayor. you got a lot of say-so, and i'm going to tell you, the mayors in this room, we love seeing the mayors at our schools. it's very impressive for our members to see a mayor come to our union meetings. it means a lot to the people who live in the community. and we have a lot of guys who do work, who do live in white plains also. we have a large membership in white plains. but the thing, is you got to hold people's feet to the fire. you got to sign agreements that require them to take people. look, if your area is getting the funding and has the work and you ha

when i was young, and i was in high school, everybody had to take shop. then they took shop out of the school. you can't even take it if you want to. i wanted to find out for you. in my community, in new york state, if you want to -- you don't go to a regular high school. that is a big decision for a ninth grader. if there were programs where you can get a taste of the trade at the same time they are still in high school, that would be better. >> i am going to answer that. white plains is a very nice place, by the way. there is already a program with many building trades that is signed by many communities. i do not believe that white plains has signed up for a high school program where high school students are automatically taken into -- what happens is, the unions come to the school and they make their sales pitch because we want those kids. as far as getting them in, in new york city and on long island, they have the project pathway type situation where the workers go union at the schools and if they don't put the kids to work, they will void the agreeme

already we have high school classes above 40 elementary schools.fter four years of consolidation, are bursting at the seams. you cannot have student outcomes with classes this large. but moreover, despite the need to cut 8% of site staff for budgetary reasons and declining enrollment, matt wayne presides over the largest unrepresented management team in district history a team that received two substantial raises last year. it's time to chop from the top and stop pretending that you reside in central office. thank you. kat for special education. hi, this is kelly, i'm calling about two things i'd like to say. non-agenda item. first, i'd like to thank, commissioner alexander for opening it up to virtual, but to respectfully ask that we're given the same amount of time and opportunities as in person as far as agenda items, i'd like to respectfully ask once again that progress monitoring, data planning metrics is inclusive of all students. that includes students with ieps as well as this is not an agenda. i am asking for the superintendent team and or

he did graduate from san mateo high school.is family says kristofferson died peacefully yesterday at his home on maui with his family. by his side. he was 88 years old. well, a long running car show brought people out to historic downtown livermore today. it was a festive atmosphere for the 35th annual nostalgia day car show. it's on four wheels. if it's on four wheels, you could probably find it right there on first street. there were muscle cars, street rods, vintage station wagons, and classic trucks all on display. a bright red chevy camaro convertible did catch the eye of one youngster. >> did you see any other cars today? yeah, the mustang. i saw a mustang and a ford. well, what do you think that these cars are so old? do you think they'll be around in ten years? yeah >> net proceeds from the show do go to bay area charities. the organizers say they've raised nearly $1 million over the years. and today was the last day of the 10th annual oktoberfest in downtown redwood city. redwood city's courthouse square was transforme

in the red are places had significant high school involvement. t again school, youth activism is essential to its spreading. it spreading in north carolina first use it to gain momentum to spread to other states and spread throughout the country. at spreading hp's in north carolina you would not have a movement, right? it always happens in greensboro it would not have happened elsewhere. without the other campuses joining in. this is where the hbcus are and again the same pattern as the demonstration. do you see that? all the way over there. okay? the newspapers one of the earliest spaces outside of north carolina and hampton university. this is a connection between the movement had hbcus or significant black high schools. the newspapers were making these connections. that's happening in this place in north carolina. when we think about we ignore the spread of these things. how this is also a collaboration. in 19371938 they should build to collaborate with other to do these kinds of work. one of the key newspaper and north carolina called to join

denise gunter went to high school there at the same time. unter: it was a richie rich school, in my opinion. i was among the middle class, i guess, but it was definitely, a middle to more wealthy high school. josh mankiewicz: in that rarefied world, dennis potts stood at the top. in high school that means money, new cars, prestige. tori didn't have any of those. denise gunter: tori saw the idea of somebody who was popular in school or the idea of somebody who had it well off, and maybe that's what attracted her to dennis. josh mankiewicz: while their dating relationship didn't last, their sexual relationship did. on again, off again. it survived both high school and several other relationships. how did tori describe her relationship with dennis potts? pretty much, just, i guess, friends with benefits. they would sort of hook up-- this was back in high school-- and then afterwards. yeah. high school, yeah, and then all the way through as long as i knew her for. he was always sort of there in the background. correct. yes. josh mankiewicz: he wa

police say deputies and emergency medical personnel rushed to the high school at about 10:23 a.m. in response to an active shooting. the school put on lockdown. >> it was just like a loud boom. >> reporter: authorities say the gunfire left four dead, two teachers, and two students, and nine injured. >> our school resource officer engaged him, and the shooter quickly realized that if he did not give up, that it would end with an oif, an officer involved shooting. he gave up, got on the ground, and the deputy took him into custody. >> reporter: golf coach david phoenix was shot twice and is alive according to his daughter, who posted on facebook that he is in stable condition. >> my heart hurts for these kids. my heart hurts for our community, but i want to make it very clear that hate will not prevail in this county. love will prevail over what happened today. >> reporter: students returned back to school in august, sophomores describing the terrifying moments. >> i didn't know what was going to happen, because you could hear the gunfire was right down the hall, so i was shaking, sc

reunifications are still taking place after hundreds of those students were escorted from the high schoolield where parents were then able to be connected with them, as we've seen some of these wired shots, it's important to note there was a nearby middle school and elementary school placed on soft lockdowns, sheltering in place while the larger investigation took place inside the high school, those lock browns have since been lifted there, so that's good news as there's parents have been able to reconnected with their children. in the meantime, four people dead and nine injured. the gunman in custody. much more to come from apalachee high school. >> morgan, we've been hearing from students as they're leaving school. >> i was crying. i didn't want to die that way. i don't really want to meet the lord that way. some kids were telling others to stop crying because it was probably scaring them. it was really scarey, because he was a quiet kid who sat in the background. >> so that's one student's account. we feel like we've done this before unfortunately, this is a community just so devastate

so just in this high school there are about 1,800 students. we're seeing very little kids with backpacks being picked up by their parents from that preschool and many parents going over to the middle school to check on their parents there. we just heard from the sheriff of barrow county who confirmed that there were multiple casualties. he couldn't give any more specifics about the conditions of those victims but we also know that a suspect has been apprehended and is in custody. we don't have any further information about the potential identity of the suspect or the motive at this point. as of right now, it is basically families coming here, extremely emotional. very scared. trying to find their kids at a time where this should have been the end of a very normal school day. >> thank you so much for that. we'll come back to you as you get more information. let me go back to you with what we heard from her but also, the obvious chaotic situation with people trying to get in and the area of people being blocked off. what the neighbor said, trying

reagor finding his opportunity through high school sports, but participation in high school sports isy going down statewide in 2023. the figures showed a 7% drop in participation compared to 2019. that trend appears to be the same nationwide, and it spans most of the popular high school sports like football, baseball and soccer. to talk more on this, i'm joined by brian walsh, head of advice and planning at sofi. thank you for joining us. >> yeah, thank you so much for having me. >> so the blame for this decrease in participation being blamed in large part on cost. it is expensive to play sports and we're talking about high school. but i feel like we're also talking about club sports, travel costs and the kids who play in high school are doing all of that. and it just seems like a lot for families. >> yeah, you're spot on. i think that's one of the major factors is on average, a season costs like $800 for a child to participate. and with the strain that families are on in general, that's just an added expense leading to decreased participation, which is, you know, one of the reasons w

i talked to high school staffer that was the one who helped get weapon off a high school student last year and on top of that h there are families that are worried about that? so what are the families concerns? they need to know from the district that wha* is happening. there is a lot to do here for sure. >> thank you. for our next it will go to the purple group. how will you ensure that the process of school closures is done fairly and transparently? we'll start off with pupryia ray. so our question is, how will you ensure that the process of school closures is done fairly and transparently? >> okay, thank you so much. something to know if folks don't is that the current timeline for school closures is the superintendent will be presenting a list on september 18th. and there will be discussions at the affected schools with the communities there, that will be followed by potential second list by the superintendent and then a vote on that list in december. so that's the current plan in terms of candidates here. new candidates if elected will not be making those closure decisions. but w

it's fantastic indeed the goal by 2026 is to increase from 10 high schools to 69 high schools across eight they have the right folks they are and will make that progress. >> it seems a piece of what is been your emphasis as a director, you've been focusing a lot on skills based hiring. also to these types of initiatives are also focus on skills -based training. these kind of apprenticeships job-training programs are so critical. how do you expand and accelerate those types of opportunities that you saw in western pennsylvania across the country? quick scaling is a challenge. it is. community colleges and i've seen a number of best practices. but how do we scale that? that is an area we have to figure out. it is scalable. when we visited our community colleges in arizona. we have security operations center on campus that's run by students. provide students with relative experience with their learning. the other thing i that is not just providing cybersecurity for the community college, it's providing cybersecurity for the local town that does not have the resources to frankly defend i

but when you get to middle school and high school, i have two high school graduates of sfusd this june, it's better to be in a larger environment so you can offer more variety whether it's sports or ap or honors, you just need a large number of students. so that says we do need to consolidate the schools so we can offer these courses to students and i fully support offering more honors courses and bring back the gate program in middle school. elementary school is still good to have small. i think we should bring all of that back to schools, all of them. >> thank you, we'll finish off with jamie hulling. >> i think it's been putting things against each something that white and asian families baunt and brown and black don't and i think that's inaccurate and inequitable. we have a student of 68 percent of color. and if we're not able to give all of those students a curriculum that allows them to reach their full potential we're not doing. the fight about positions in lowell, was hard fought. there is more of a demand than we currently offer and we should have more aps especially on the so

statistics show that 611 students of the second year of high school are studying in high school and only 39% they are inclined to study in the art school , but this small percentage of them are working at the same time as university education, we had students who after military service. they came and started the workshop by themselves. they are our sewing design children who are now doing the workshop themselves. the index is 39. now, by the end of the seventh program, you should reach 50%. those who want to go to the experimental field must have at least 14 years of average in science, 13 years of mathematics , and vice versa, but the number of conservatories is not sufficient. the end of the 7th thousand conservatories program should be established or renovated this year, 100 conservatories of non-user fields will be removed and new fields will be added . we have seen the report, dr. one of the issues that cause challenges for the family and for the students is that the guidance boards education for various reasons, one is that the late exam dates are adjusted in some areas, one is tha

it's apparently one of only two high schools in the public school district.this hour. these are live pictures. this is just breaking news. what do we think is happening right now? >> the key here in these early moments, even hours, is containment of the scene, to ensure that not only are you dealing with the wounded and injured. there have been reports of helicopters flying the wounded out of the area. but also from a law enforcement perspective, do we have the shooter or shooters, plural, in custody? that's the setup going on right now. then you are also setting up a family reunification center, telling parents who, of course, are extremely anxious about what they are hearing, to go to this other location where they will be given updates. hopefully, reunited with students once a lockdown is passed. it's a small community. to high schools in the county. it's a town about 42 miles northeast of atlanta. it's considered commutable to the atlanta metropolitan area. high school has less than 2,000 students. what does that mean? it will be easier to clear that buil
