Senator James Sanders Jr. said: “If students are not safe, they cannot learn. School safety should always be a priority. We need to encourage young people to settle their differences in a non-violent manner and we can do that through mediation and juvenile court. I hope that both of these young victims recover from their injuries, put this experience behind them, and move on to living fruitful lives."
