According to Duval County Public Schools data, 510 fights recorded last year at Duval County high schools or on buses involving those schools. When the I-TEAM compared data from the first 60 days of this school year to the same timeframe last school, it appears the district is on track to see roughly the same number of fights by the end of the year.
DCPS told the I-TEAM they are taking several steps to keep schools safe, including preventative measures such as mental telehealth services offered through their partnership with Hazel Health.
