Fights in schools of all type occur regardless of race, demographics or local politics we just had some at our predominantly upper middle class high schools after basketball games, it doesn't mean the end of Western Civilization as we know it.
Per another thread recently, I posted up the sources of school shootings and the majority were gang\drug and accidental discharge (most by the former group). Then you get very small slices like suicide, family shooting and disgruntled student plus a mix of tiny slices past that.
So, I don't think it's fair to just chalk this up to "fights happen everywhere even at the nice schools" because it's an unfair comparison for the kids that literally have gang shootings in their life on a frequent basis.
People seem to get all interested in stopping "school shootings" but then just want to target a certain small wedge because it aligns with their politics instead of tackling the bigger issue which does not.
This is a good representation of the current progressive mindset, especially in blue city governance. If a store keeper is pistol whipped and robbed, the first consideration is not sympathy for the victim, or anger and demands that the perpetrator be punished and stopped from doing it again. No, the philosophy is to treat the aggressor as a victim and investigate what went wrong in his life, and try not to perpetuate those "wrongs" by furthering his injustice by making him go to jail.
Criminal-first mentality.
I would say victim-last mentality, but in reality the victim does not even exist in their minds
Fights happen everywhere including conservative schools. There are horror stories about minorities being attacked at predominantly white schools and even at the university level.
BS.
This would be national news and all CNN would talk about for an entire month. Regardless of the facts, they would inject lies to ramp up the outrage of any incident where a minority was threatened by a group of white students.
Remember when a smirking kid menacingly glared at a Native American drum beater? That non story was all they could talk about for weeks.

Stop it.
You should not try to downplay serious acts of violence committed by Whites, while showing videos of high school girl fights to try to push right wing propaganda. 90% of mass shooters in the US are white males. Columbine, Sandy hook, Las Vegas Stephen Paddock, Charles Whitman University of Texas, Timothy McVey, George Hennard, James Huberty, Charles Manson, Ted Bundy, Patrick Crusius, Dylan Roof, James Holmes, Patrick Sherrill, Derek Chauvin, Kyle Rittenhouse, Leatherface, Jason, Freddy Krueger, et al. Trust me, whites love to fight, in school, out of school, it doesn't matter.

My father grew up in the inner city. He saw plenty of fights in school, DURING THE 1960s, even in elementary school. He saw girls fighting in school as well. This is nothing new. We're in a time when cameras are catching it.
