There's major gang violence among some rival Mexican factions going on right now; a major fight is about to break out, and all the teachers have been notified to monitor the halls immediately following the last bell. The basketball game tonight has been cancelled.
I love teaching in the 'hood.
Actually, I really do. I actually have a chance to make a difference with a few. Pray that I can.
UPDATE: Everything went calmly after school. I noticed a plain-clothes officer on patrol in the lobby, and lots of teachers and staff out walking around. I hope they can all keep themselves under control tonight and this weekend, but I fear there will be reprisals for the murder earlier this week of a gang leader. [sigh]
