I decided to keep my older daughter home today just because there has been to many "Psycho" things going on. Not only was there the VT thing on Monday but yesterday there was a domestic situation that was a murder suicide just down the street from my daughters school. It looks like she was friends of the kids of the parents that died. Some guy went over to his ex wifes house blew her away and then took himself out. There kids were standing right there watching it all happen. pretty shitting thing so just getting a little reprieve today.

Isn't today the Columbine anniversary too? I certainly do not envy parents raising kids these days.:( Lots of crazies in the world. I actually went to the school that Brenda Spencer was all hopped up on LSD and shot the principal, janitor and a bunch of kids back in the 70's. We had just moved to San Diego from the midwest and the whole shooting happened a week before I transferred into that school. :eek:
I think it was a good choice keeping your daughter home. ;)

Yeah, I have a seven year old, but she is in a k-8 school. Just to much crazy shit going on. And the whole Columbine thing...... Call me over protective, I would rather be that than daughterless. There was a drug bust in a million dollar home across the street from her school and they were locked down, this was just the other day. And all of this copy cat crap I have been hearing about on the radio with all of the threats. She is going to work on the boat with me today. SOme guy is going to be a lucky man some day. Not only will she be a doctor, but she will also know how to reassemble a 21 ft mini day cruiser.:D

You did the right thing, with the anniversary of Columbine and all. That is what I would have done. I don't really need to worry though. Mine are always at home (home school).

Friday Classes Canceled At Bonita High School Due To Threat
Unspecified Threat Causes Concern, Police Say

LA VERNE, Calif. -- Bonita High School in La Verne was ordered kept closed Friday amid reports that a 17-year-old boy who resides in the area has disappeared, along with rifles, shotguns, and ammunition that were in his home.
The emergency closure came on the eighth anniversary of the Columbine High School shootings, which claimed 15 lives, and four days after the massacre at Virginia Tech, where 32 people were killed by a student who then took his own life.
"Due to an emergency situation, we are canceling school Friday, April 20. School will resume on Monday," said a statement posted by the Bonita Unified School District on Bonita High School's Web site.
Students were notified of the closure by telephone late last night.
A parent in an unincorporated area near La Verne called the Sheriff Department yesterday afternoon to report a burglary and the disappearance of the family's 17-year-old son, according to broadcast reports.
Several rifles, shotguns, handguns, and ammunition were stolen from the home, and though authorities do not know for certain that the missing boy is responsible, he is regarded as a person of interest, according to the reports.
Authorities interviewed an acquaintance of the missing boy who reportedly told officials he may have made a threat against the school about a month ago.
Police will be at Bonita High at 3102 D St. Friday to monitor the 1,700- student campus and turn students away who did not receive the message regarding the closure, said La Verne police Lt. Gary Mason.
Explaining the decision to cancel classes, Mason said authorities wanted to be on the safe side, but he declined to elaborate on the emergency.
School Board member Patti Latourelle told the San Gabriel Valley Tribune that "there was no threat against our school," but she did not elaborate on the wider threat that prompted the closure.
Other officials also declined to offer details.
"We have rumors we are looking into," Bonita Unified School Board Superintendent Gary Rapkin told the Tribune. "La Verne police have recommended, and we plan to follow their recommendation, to close the school."
Sgt. Rafael Estrada of the Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department's San Dimas Station confirmed the school was being shut down due to a security issue, but he also declined to elaborate, the Tribune reported.
Dozens of school administrators, teachers, and school officials held a meeting until around midnight to discuss the situation.
The closure comes four days after a deranged student killed 32 people on the campus of Virginia Tech before killing himself, and it coincides with the eighth anniversary of the Columbine High School shootings in Littleton, Colorado, where two disaffected students killed 12 students and a teacher before taking their own lives.

My wife and I talk about that all of the time, home schooling. We have a 15 to 1 ratio here in Verrado and she still learns more at home than at school. I am a product of a very good public school system back in SoCal, or at least it was. I just am not impressed with the school out here. She just finished here first grade testing and did very well. But I do not think it was her teacher that helped her.

I actually did great in public school as well. But they don't deal with the same schools we did growing up anymore. Kids are also dealing with social issues at much younger ages as well. We have 3 kids kindergarten through 3rd grade, and none of the have ever been to school. I was scared at first, but we have never regretted a moment since. If you ever seriously think about it, you can always pm me with ?'s
Funny part is that it was my husbands idea at first! I said, "Are you crazy???":)

The news said to expect 8-10 inches. Typically the promise of 8-10 would be inticing....but when it comes to snow, not so much

Good decision on your end. Damn, sad situation but it is called life. Many people just can't handle life and what it throws at you from time to time.

Glad to hear that Home Schooling is working out for your family. I have a few friends who find it a benefit to their families as well.

Then there's the graffiti sprayed all over Vista Murrieta High on Monday and Tuesday stating that everyone will die on 4-20 (today). Nice stuff to contend with these days.
