Lebanon High School 500 Blue Devil Boulevard, Lebanon, TN 37087

"Don't hurt the principal's feelings for any reason... even it is for anti-bullying or speaking the truth... that is how sad and poor this school. This school needs better, smarter, stronger, and selfless leadership that can handle the simplest criticism or truth... right now this principal proven he has none of those qualities. When then the leadership is bad, so is the school."

"After reading the news and watching the video i firmly believe the whole administration should be removed. From what i have seen and read i gathered that this school is like many others where if you have the right last name you get away with pretty much anything, but if you don't have the right last name you don't have a snowball's chance. Protecting the bullies while punishing the ones that get bullied or speak up about it is a cowardess move. I understand you don't want to get a reputation for being a bullying infested school, but you are going about it all wrong. Punish the bullies and protect the bullied and you will have a much better reputation, and all the benefits that go with that, as of right now there would be know way on this earth i would ever send a child to that school with these cowards running it. In my opinion you are a terrible school and i have a feeling there are a lot of things that go unreported, unpunished, and swept under the rug, all for the sake of saving face and protecting someone with the right last name. If the administration does not have the guts to deal with things the correct way then they need to be removed and replaced with an administration that treats everyone the same regardless of last name and how much influence that name has. Until mahor changes are made i hope every parent pulls their child or children out of that school. That will hit the school where it hurts, in the pocketbook. Less students equals less funding and in turn also a lower rating because only the bullies will be left."

"I called as follow up to a news report that I had read. They were very rude and answered none of my questions. I was being exceedly polite yet their tone remained aggressive. It may be that the craziness of the story is bang on and the school officials are to blame. I hope they work it out because this is a huge issue facing young people."

"As a retired teacher I find it horrifying that bullied students are not believed over bullies! If we promote that women should be believed over their abusers in the #metoo movement, where is that thinking in the bully movement? Administrators, especially at this school, ignore the bused and favor the abusers. This is one reason I left teaching... administrators and their inherent corruption supported by school/governing boards. I agree with this video... how many students' deaths will it take for the consciousness and attitudes of staff and administrators to change? I would love to see teachers who support the support of the abused to quit and state unequivocally in their exit interviews this reason for leaving. With enough support for these abused students, hopefully things will change. In this case with the student who created this video, the wrong person was punished. When will the punish the administrators for their actions? Probably not in my lifetime."

"The school seems to be fine unless you question the administrators. They seem to get really upset and suspend students when said students bring the prevelancy of bullying to the public eye. Whatever you do make sure you don’t publicly embarrass the principal or vice principal. They are small minded and fearful “leaders” who are full of hubris and will quickly retaliate."
