Dahlonega Nugget Letter to the Editor from Clarke Poole

So it happens that often then?

It goes through spells of happening a lot.  Then there are times when it is very rare for something like that to happen at all.  When it does happen a lot it is typically a few months after Len has accepted several kids that had no business being there in the first place.

Will having the teachers perform security functions in the dorm help that or add to it? What about this supposed crack security team that's being brought it? Is there any truth to that?

It was his birthday, early january, and 4 kids came in his room and "jumped" him. He got 4 stiches in his lip and many bruises. One of the kids that did it graduated in August 2006 and two others on left the school 5 months later. They were not all dismissed. Nothing was done for him by staff and it was not mentioned in "Reals" or group therapy, until BATMAN brought it up himself to the group, 2 months later. that is what happened

I may be thinking of a different incident, but weren't all of the kids involved sent to Ridge Creek right away?  Also, "batman" talked about this incident with staff away from the group.  They didn't want him to bring it up in group until he was ready to talk about it.  

Again, I may be thinking of a different incident.

What about that one boy who got jumped and ended up in the hospital with a bruised spleen?
