I think the problem belongs to the community and is not the sole responsibility of the school.

In my neighborhood a young man was beaten to death by a group on school grounds, after school hours. The group that murdered the young man was from another school. It has been a great sadness in our community.

The kids, the school and the community got together and proposed a greenway. Council approved it and now, three years later, we are beginning to heal together and build a memorial garden and greenway.

Something beautiful from something very sad.

His mother said it would make him happy.

Reach out to each other.
