Which Pa. schools had the largest number of arrests in 2019-20?
Updated Feb 15, 2021;
The Pennsylvania Department of Education’s annual Safe Schools report for the 2019-20 school year showed a noticeable drop in reported arrests.
Districts are required to submit their misconduct reports, both criminal and academic infractions, to the state every year. Reporting sometimes changes from year-to-year, but no changes were made last school year.
Last year, the top three criminal reasons why students were in trouble statewide were:
Possession, use, or sale of tobacco or vaping 8.34 percent
Fighting 8.14 percent
Minor altercation 5.42 percent
Here’s a list of the schools that had the largest number of arrests, and the crime that was most common at each school.
Trib Total Media TV writer Rob Owen offers a viewing tip for the coming week.
No one who watches the recently-released Netflix comedy special “Nate: A One Man Show” will confuse it with any other comedy special.
The avant-garde, one-hour special is rated TV-MA for good reason and stars Natalie Palamides, a 2008 Peters Township High School/2012 Indiana University of Pennsylvania grad, as Nate, a guy who is toxic masculinity personified.
Her bare chest speckled in fake chest hair, Palamides wears a manly vest for the first half of the program but then … stuff happens: Prosthetic male body parts are bared, a shower is taken on stage.
