The student was arrested, or removed. Is calling the police to Columbia High School a change in policy, or was it due to special circumstances? In this thread's predecessor several posters asked for a yes/no answer. No response. On 3/7, at a CHS meeting, it appeared that there was a new zero tolerance policy. And a new question was posted here: Is there a zero tolerance policy, and if so, was it communicated to the CHS community? On 3/8, poster C Bataille made a terrific point about enforcement of zero tolerance policies by school districts, pointing out the dumb enforcement of literal interpretation of rules. Thread drift finally led to the demise of the original thread by a very patient web master who finally and rightly enforced a zero tolerance policy due to a few posters who just don't get it. Let's try again. Admin, Bd of Education, El Super, is there a new policy?   anon Citizen Username: Anon Post Number: 1693 Registered: 6-2002 Posted on Sunday, March 13, 2005 - 10:06 pm:        I am pleased that the "web master" shut down the thread that had become an outlet for a personal feud. Now, Reflective, Are you optimistic about getting an answer?   Just The Aunt Supporter Username: Auntof13 Post Number: 721 Registered: 1-2004 Posted on Sunday, March 13, 2005 - 11:29 pm:        Has someone tried to call the BOE for an answer? I looked on the district's website, but couldn't find anything.   steel Citizen Username: Steel Post Number: 643 Registered: 2-2002 Posted on Monday, March 14, 2005 - 8:56 am:          Reflective Citizen Username: Reflective Post Number: 820 Registered: 3-2003 Posted on Monday, March 14, 2005 - 9:46 pm:        anon: maybe, just maybe the question will be asked to the incumbent candidates, and a follow-up to the non incumbents as to whether or not there should be a policy.
