Wow! Our elementary schools are really doing well!

Have elementary schools been a historically high risk environment for gang related incidents? I haven't seen that trend nationally, from what I've read.

Sorry...I was being sarcastic...should have added my smiley...
We know that most high schools have some sort of gang presence but I haven't heard of any of the elementary schools having gangs. Can you imagine how a gang of kindergarten kids would get around??? So since we don't expect gangs in elementary schools, it seemed silly to me to see them included in the poll.
What constitutes a gang related incident? IT would have been nice to have the definition within the article. Statistics are misleading without the proper context. I was surprised that Wakefield High School has so many compared to other area high schools. Didn't see that one coming.
Maybe they should rate area mall as well. I bet the Triangle Town 'gang-bangin' Center would be right up there too.
Sad in a developed country we have to be even take polls like this.
