It is obvious that the administrators are still new. No wonder the bullying at school is out of control. The school district need to keep an eye on the principal, especially the assistant principal at McPherson Magnet school. It is encouraged that they need to take workshops on how to handle bullying as well as take credential/masters courses in positive behavior assessment.
