Oh with a name like X-Northsider (and having read your previous anti-North/ anti-schools posts), could we really expect any less from you? And you're sure about that statement - you have records showing that a sexual assault has never happened at any of those schools EVER? I wouldn't be so sure about that, sh**/ crime happens at high schools EVERYWHERE. Take, for instance, the most recent MPD "Juvenile" division highlights report for the week of Jan 6 - 12 2009 (what's that, is Henry the only HS that had ZERO crime in this week?)

Juvenile
School Resource Officers: HIGH SCHOOL: Edison: Criminal Sexual Conduct-Molestation; Henry: Cited Runaway; Lehman Ctr: Personwith Gun; North: Warrant Arrest, Truancy; South: Marijuana; Southwest: Truancy, Misc, Assault, Marihuana; Washburn: Assault; VOA: Theft; MIDDLE SCHOOL: Green Central: Recovered Property; Harrison: Damage to Property; Lucy Laney: Assault; Riverbend: Assault; Windom: Disorderly Conduct
