Unacceptable Lack of Supervision and MisinformationI am extremely disappointed with Stone Hill Middle School’s handling of student safety, particularly during dismissal. Today, my son—who has never been in a fight and is a good student—was attacked without provocation by another student he does not even know. The attack left him with a black eye and a bloodied nose, and the attacker ran away before anyone could stop him. No staff or administrators were present to intervene; in fact, the school only became aware of the situation after my son sought help at the clinic.To make matters worse, the Principal, Rohini Tohan, sent a misleading message to the school community, falsely stating that adults were able to intervene. This is completely untrue. There was no immediate intervention, and my son was left to handle the aftermath on his own.This incident raises serious concerns about the school’s supervision during dismissal and their failure to respond appropriately. How can parents feel confident that their children are safe if fights can occur without any staff intervention? And why misrepresent the facts instead of taking accountability?I expect immediate action to improve supervision and ensure student safety. No parent should have to worry about their child being assaulted at school with no protection.

Moorefield Station Elementary is a great school with a warm, welcoming environment. Principal Williams has really grown into her leadership role over the past few years and assembled a strong administrative team. They make an effort to be seen on rolling desks in hallways and classrooms as often as possible, speaking to children by name. Although there are quite a few new teachers, now that COVID is long gone and the transfers after the prior principal retired are over, the staff seem to be very content. The PTO has increased community involvement, especially in the past school year. There are academic and social programs offered and parents, as well as teachers, attend special programs (Bingo, Math Night, Musicals). The school now has great monthly Shark-of-the-Month assemblies which build community and celebrate student achievement. Overall, Moorefield Station is a wonderful place for young learners to thrive!

Kids bully, there are multiple school fights
