Houston considers discipline center for armed students HOUSTON (AP) — The alarm ing number of guns and other weap ons turning up on high school cam puses has some administrators wanting to open a discipline center for students who come to class armed. The discipline center for the Houston Independent School Dis trict would be tor students who have been declared incorrigible because they came to school with a weapon, HISD officials say. Such weapons include firearms, knives, spears, clubs, explosive de vices, cattle prods, martial arts in struments, spiked bracelets and ra zors, officials say. In one case, a 17-year-old student at Jones High School was shot by a 15-year-old student in a hallway af ter a quarrel between the two con cerning the older youth’s girlfriend. The snooting victim was not se riously injured in the shooting in late January. Edith Moore, coordinator of a group of district officials charged with overseeing secondary school campuses, wrote a memo Tuesday to the district’s superintendent propos ing an alternative center for long term disciplinary reassignment of students caught with weapons. Moore wrote in another memo about the problem, “We are experi encing a rapid increase in the num ber of guns and other dangerous weapons on our secondary cam puses.” Superintendent Bill Reagan said he supports such a proposal. The staff “perceives a need and I will trust their judgment,” Reagan said. “We have been derelict in not hav ing done it already,” he said. . The school board would have to approve a plan for the discipline center.
