  1. He stabbed his aid because he is sped

  2. Yes this is true a special Ed kid stabbed his helper with a wooden stick from the plants that are by the new building after that around 9 the kid had gone to a window at the new buildings and started to hit the window with the same wooden piece but he thought it didn’t work so a couple seconds after he returned and brought a huge rocks and just threw it at the window thankfully know intruding the class but was then tackled by one of the staff from the school. Once he was tackled he just sat there for a couple minutes until the sheriff’s came and surely asked the kid to put his hands behind his back as the officers were about to cuff him until the kid sprinted away they were toward the end able to put him into custody.

  3. I think I know what or who the student is, maybe. Also I had recently left the school for family reasons but seeing my school being atact is just shocking for me to hear.

  4. he’s in e period p.e
