The food fight here started the way such bouts do in school lunchrooms most anywhere: an apple was tossed, a cookie turned into a torpedo...The problem is, this wasn't "most anywhere." It happened at a Chicago south-side charter middle school with the result of 25 African-American students, some as young as 11 years old, being sent off to jail. I'm talking with educators at the school to try and find out how such a thing could happen at a small charter school with a culture built around the slogan is "A disciplined Life" and to find out what will be done to set things right with the kids and parents.
More to come.
