I believe they just happened at the same time.

Did the fights relate to the discovery of the bones, or did they just happen at the same time?

Isabel — there were some serious injuries in those fights — one kid’s back was apparently seriously injured.

No deaths though!

Well, now I know why the police cars were in front of the school when DH and I arrived for older son’s triennial IEP meeting. Nothing to do with us! (DH has had security called a few times – not for cause – because he’s big, and he gets LOUD when his children need his advocacy!)

My first thought when reading the description of what was found was a homeless person died in their campsite. Years (decades possibly) ago my father and brother found a body / skeleton when they were hiking around a reservoir that was very low (it was a previous drought, not the current one). The county sheriffs took several months, but eventually determined the remains were from someone who’d jumped from the bridge above and who’d never been found.

My family had a bit of discomfort over the find, but the family of the deceased person finally had closure after seven years of wondering what had happened. I hope the students’ discomfort is minimal, even though they didn’t treat their find correctly, and that the family of this lost life also have closure and peace.

When I was a Skyline student (1965-1968) they discovered a body on “senior lawn.” It was near naked but soon recovered and returned to class several days following the regretful notification of next of kin, an OPS Associate Superintendent, that his son had hallucinated on LSD on ‘senior lawn.’

Anyway, that was the only body ever discovered at Skyline while I was there – a body that believed, for a short time at least, that it was better off dead.

“Just say no” to drugs kids! Some public service messages never change.

Wow! I also thought that a student had died. This is still completely ridiculous. Things should have been handled differently.

You would not believe the rumors going around school today. I was terrified. There were about six police cars and a van from the coroners office and a helicopter to top it off.

People were saying a student died in a brutal fight, I even heard a finger and “pelvic area” were found, flesh and all.
