  • As far as the bulling issues and general safety of the students including internet harrassment, threats to students in the hallways and violence, I feel that Sycamore High is not doing it's job. Students are told that if threatened, they are to walk away and say nothing. This only gives the bully the feeling that they can do as they wish. No student can do their best if they are afraid for their safety during school hours. As a parent of a student harrassed for 2 years, I have been to the school countless times trying to ensure the safety of my child, and I can tell you...I also was told to look the other way. Considering the large salaries that these administrators are paid, I feel they could do a better job in keeping our students safe.
