After considering all the evidence, and discussing the varying reliability of the sources, you (as principal) must make a decisi
on about who is responsible for the fight. Please fill out this suspension form thoughtfully, clearly explaining your reasoning in reaching your judgement. Cite sources and explain what they said and how reliable their information is. Lastly, explain how this situation can be repaired--how can you help these students and the school restore their sense of community.
based on information, max started the fight because his family was fired and he was mad at justins parents for firing his parents so, he started a fight with justin. adults even noticed how depressed max has been. Likely from money problems.
max should be suspended for a week for starting a fight.
the parents should be talked to about the matter and the boys should be talked to about different ways to handle issues. there should be a school assembly about how fighting is wrong and how to be better leaders and stop conflict in better ways. The parents should work out their business and tell the public when it is settled.
Since it is not clear of what happened I would put both Max and Justin alone in a room to talk and work things out. Hopefully they can be friends and apologize to each other.
