Massachusetts high school pleads National Guard quell ‘shocking levels of chaos and violence’ among studentsA group of Massachusetts educators are pleading for Gov. Maura Healey to deploy National Guard troops to Brockton High School to help quell what teachers described as “shocking levels of chaos and violence” among the students there, posing serious security concerns over the past several months.In a letter last week, four Brockton School Committee members – Joyce Asack, Tony Rodrigues, Claudio Gomes and Ana Oliver – asked that Brockton Mayor Robert Sullivan request temporary National Guard support at Brockton High School from Healey to address “a disturbing increase in incidents related to violence, security concerns, and substance abuse.””Recent events at Brockton High School have prompted us to seek immediate assistance to prevent a potential tragedy,” the letter, obtained by several local news outlets, read. “The situation has reached a critical point, more recently we had an alarming 35 teachers absent, underscoring the severity of the challenges we are facing.”The letter said instances of students wandering the halls, engaging in altercations and causing disruptions in classrooms “have become alarmingly frequent.””These incidents are not only undermining the learning environment but are also jeopardizing the integrity of the state-wide testing process,” roughly half of the committee wrote. “As concerned members of the school committee, we are reaching out to you with the hope that the City and State can provide assistance and support in addressing this urgent matter.”The letter pointed to a recent spike in students leaving school grounds without permission, as well as trespassers on school property, citing “a lack of adequate staffing” at entrances and exits.””These situations not only put the students and staff at risk but also undermines the overall safety of our community,” the letter said.
