Fights, guns, overdoses: Staff at York Memorial warn school on brink of crisis

Violence against adults, fights in the hallways and reports of weapons on the property. Staff at York Memorial Collegiate Institute in York say the school is in crisis, and the board isn’t doing enough.

“The expectation was, ‘Hey, show up to work and pretend as if nothing happened all through the day. Cross your fingers, hope to God that it will not happen again,’” said a staff member, whom CityNews has agreed to keep anonymous.

Fourteen of the school’s 80 staff members staged a one-day work refusal campaign due to safety issues, an unprecedented number at a single school, a union representing secondary school teachers in Toronto said.

What a shithole. But then the TDSB sucks shit, groomers and racists run the place.
