Bullying at Shields Middle School is completely out of hand. School officials are not doing enough to protect our children. It is time to take this matter into our own hands! Sign this petition to give Shields Middle School this warning, "If nothing is done to decrease the bullying at Shields Middle School by March 20th, (return of children from spring break) then we will alert the media of the unsafe conditions at this school!

So here I am setting in the office at Beth Shields middle school once again. It just never ends. The bully's are not being delt with seriously. I am so over this! Taken this to the school board! Flash a gril just walked in the the office and is being suspended for fighting! Big surprise!
My son was bullied on the bus, and in the classroom. In both incidences my son was moved to the front of the bus and a new classroom. Why is my son being punished and not the bullies.
I had to watch a video where my daughter got hit and she did noting and got 3 days ISS. Was told by Jackson she deserved it and if she would have hit back they would have suspended the other girl. What are they teaching here??
The staff also are bully's one teacher told my son he was waste of space and oxygen and he admitted to it students witnessed it and wrote a statement I still nothing happened to the teacher
As a parent that has had 4 children attend your school BULLYING IS VERY BAD! Hope Witsal committed suicide because of Bullying this school does not take a strong enough stance against it! With my youngest attending next year....STOP THE BULLYING..TAKE A STRONGER STANCE PLEASE!!! THANK YOU!
I would constantly come home everyday telling my aunt how much people bothered me. She would tell the school and so would i. and they did nothing. Mrs,Carr never cared about us getting bullied like she said she did on the news. Shields DOES have a bullying problem. She lied on the news. My aunt would constantly yell at the staff to do something and they didnt. i did get into fights alot but thats because after a while i stood up for myself. and i never started the issues. i just ended them because no one else would help me. i would get bullied so much to the point where i started to self harm and think more about suicide and just tired of always being the victumn. and when other kids got bullied i would cry for them and help them stand up for themselves. some kids just dont have the bold voice that they need to have. so i wanted to help out. but the bullying should be stopped once and for all.
Administration is not visible at the school. The principal is always at meetings, and hardly on campus since she returned from her leave of absence. Although Shields is one of the largest middle schools in the county, all four administrators have less than 5 years in their current position. Shields needs veteran administrators - there needs to be a change of administration as well as teachers. Regarding staff that cares - there are teachers that do; but why hasn't administration addressed teachers (data chats) whose students have a large percentage of receiving a "D" or "F" on their report card - sometimes it's not always the students. This school is a horrible school, and I would discourage any parent from sending their child here! Place your child in a magnet school.

I remember when a girl used to bother me alot and hurt me (this was in 6th grade) and the teachers just ignored me even the principal. Even some girls tried to report a threat the office told her to come back later because the counselor is busy... Unbelievable
