A Pennsylvania girl spoke angrily against her school’s teachers and administrators after a transgender student hit the brave girl’s friend using a Stanley mug.
The incident took place at Pennbrook Middle School on Wednesday, when the 13-year-old girl blindsided her 12-year-old victim in the school cafeteria by using the cup, hitting her in the head and creating an open wound.
The unidentified student had to be hospitalized and receive staples to close the cuts on her head before undergoing concussion protocol, according to police.
School Superintendent Todd Bauer said the attack, which was captured on a security camera, was “deeply disturbing” in a statement at the beginning of Thursday’s board meeting.
However, as one unidentified student bravely put it, she not only warned teachers that the harassing student had “a list of targets,” but added that she would be the next to be attacked if she had not been stopped.
A Pennsylvania girl spoke angrily against her school’s teachers and administrators after a transgender student hit the brave girl’s friend using a Stanley mug.
“You could have stopped him,” said the brave young woman. ‘It’s been five hours since I told you it was going to happen. I don’t understand how you couldn’t stop that.
He added that there was a girl who the stalker “attacked every day during lunch.” And they went to the counselor every day and told him this was going to happen.”
The attacker was forceful enough to shout ‘I’m going to murder you!’ repeatedly to the students.
The girl talked about how she and two fellow students filled out paperwork explaining what they knew would happen if nothing was done and said they warned her to “watch her back” at lunch.
A teacher responded: ‘Don’t worry, it won’t happen.’
He added that once the attack began, it lasted 28 minutes, even though the school board claimed it was only eight minutes.
‘We had to look [the victim] Pulled out with blood dripping down his face and I’ll never forget it! Last night, lying in bed, I replayed it in my head.
Parents shared their own outrage at the school’s inability to protect the student and how this has been a shocking trend at the school and with parents listening to their children and not the adults in charge.

School Superintendent Todd Bauer said the attack, which was captured on a security camera, was “deeply disturbing” in a statement at the beginning of Thursday’s board meeting.
Stephanie Pallica shockingly revealed that the school principal referred to what happened as “a fight” in an email to parents.
‘As a parent, your worst fear comes true when you get that call from your child, crying, at school: ‘Mom, help me, I’m scared, there’s blood everywhere.’ You can’t get to them fast enough. And they hang up on you, because teachers and staff yell at them to get off their phones,” he said.
“When we get an email that says ‘student safety is always of utmost importance to the district,’ it really has become rhetoric that we don’t believe in or trust,” Susan Dziedzic added, according to The online reporter.
“I could easily spend hours giving you examples of the violence that is happening, in any school, on any day, from kindergarten to 12th grade,” he added.
Alyssa Santiago’s daughter was also on the alleged hit list and called twice to notify the school.
“They assured me that my daughter was safe and that everything was taken care of and taken care of.”
Another mother, Ariel Baker Edwards, said she had started warning about the attacker as early as September.
Chris Pekula, who said he had a friend who lost a child in the Sandy Hook massacre, was outraged that children remained locked up, unable to contact their family.
“You could have stopped him,” said the brave young woman. ‘It’s been five hours since I told you it was going to happen. I don’t understand how you couldn’t stop that.
The attacker has been charged by police with aggravated assault and has a hearing scheduled for Monday
He asked: ‘Why did they leave the children in the room, that this incident occurred, while they cleaned the blood from the floor? My daughter calls me crying, hysterical, that they were cleaning the blood from the floor.’
Pekula’s daughters were two of the students who visited counselors twice on the morning of the attack and warned them it was coming, he said.
‘What happened from the time you and your district received warning that this attack was coming to the time it occurred? Because it happened exactly how she told you it was going to happen.
Several guardians even claimed to have seen videos on social media of the attacker engaging in violent behavior, adding that their children knew the student’s reputation and went to school in fear.
‘There was a violent history of this child, and I want to call one of the board members to evaluate the ‘Safe2Say’ program, call a special committee, just like you did with the renovations at the high school, to evaluate all. that happened and inform the community,” Shannon Main said.
One mother, Sarah Batory, highlighted the trauma these children have suffered and said her son told her: “When I close my eyes, all I see is [the victim’s] blood.’
The meeting ended with angry parents shouting more questions at the board.
‘We cannot comment at this time, due to everyone’s due process rights and the law. I wish I could answer those questions. My heart is broken too,” said board vice president Christian Fusco.
“As an educator, as a superintendent and as a parent, I am shocked by what happened,” said Superintendent Todd Bauer.

Superintendent Todd Bauer could only make an equally unsatisfactory statement.
“As an educator, as a superintendent and as a parent, I am shocked by what happened,” he said.
‘We are currently investigating the details that led to this incident and why it occurred. “We are also collaborating with local authorities and their investigation, as we work to ensure something like this cannot happen again in our schools.”
‘Such behavior has no place in our schools. “You expect better, we expect better and certainly so do I,” she added.
The attacker has been charged by police with aggravated assault and has a hearing scheduled for Monday.
The 12-year-old girl he attacked is still recovering in hospital.
