Parents are concerned about the response, policies and accountability.

One by one people spoke up about concerns they have within the district.

“What’s the end? What does it take to remove a student who is breaking rules, hurting kids repeatedly? Why are we allowing these repeated behaviors? I’ll end there,” questioned one parent Erin Blanc.

“Many students in our schools have behavior problems,” said Dr. Todd Bauer, the superintendent of North Penn School District.

Parents questioned officials about an update on the district’s safety enhancements over the years. Some parents wanted more answers regarding the assault.

Parents want to know if precautionary measures were taken at Pennbrook prior to the student walking in on day one.
