Some people have a lot of nerve ... today, a woman posing as a parent walked into the school this morning. She was spotted outside several rooms looking at bulletin boards. One person even asked her if she need any help...no, was waiting on her child...she managed to steal two people's purses before she left the building!!!
Now, the mornings before the bell rings is a lot of hustle and bustle ~ parents dropping off kids, kids going to the cafeteria for breakfast or in the hall waiting for the bell to ring. Several people saw this woman but assumed she was a parent. Nope - she was scoping out the situation and stealing purses! One teacher came in her room to find all her desk drawers pulled open. THE NERVE! This school is a very warm and friendly environment - unlike my previous school. At this school, classroom doors are left open and teachers are visiting. It is a trusting environment with minimal problems. Someone took advantage of that today, and it really ticks me off!
After she took two purses at our school, she walked next door to the church and asked if she could use the phone and stole a purse there too! Then she CAME BACK to the school....the bad part is that no one was sure who she was yet - they were looking and playing back the video from the morning. Here's the best part - while security was looking over the video - she was outside going through THEIR car!! (it was later seen on video ~along with her seeing what vehicles she could get into!)
Anyway - she got away for now. They have her face and car on tape...I just can't believe how bold some people are!

Irritating!!! I hope they catch her!
Get this, the local lame news station decided to send a reporter to pose as a student to see how easy he/she could get into the school. Well, he/she was questioned and escorted to the office. Yeah for the school, right. Nope. Our rather open and trusting school--like yours, was featured on the news that night as a school with lax security! Not true. They neglected to say that the reporter was spotted right away and escorted to the office.
I hate being taken advantage of . . .
Oh my goodness. That's just insane.
You have to "check-in" to all the schools around here. I guess that's why.
WOW, I'm glad no one got hurt in the process, but damn stealing purses and going through cars is dangerous, exspecially with the kids around!
Oh my! This is terrible. It's sad that there are people who would even attempt something like this, but it's sadder still that this is a common problem in a lot of schools!! It's easy to assume a person is a parent. There's got to be a way to fix this. Think of the answer, Lori. LOL
