Sex offenders are already prohibited from living near schools, but Johnston County is considering completely banning them from campus.
That includes parents of students at the schools if they are on the sex offender registry.
The proposed policy permits parents on the registry to participate in parent-teacher conferences, provided they receive advance written approval of the school’s principal. Parents can also come to campus at the request of the principal “for any reason relating to the welfare or transportation of his or her child.” Full Article
Funny thing about that….we (NC) already have a premise law in effect statewide. This ban probably ranks second in the country only being bested by Alabama in terms of toughness. Schools, churches, state fairs, any fast food joint that has a playground heck anywhere that is within 300 feet of where children congergate is off limits. There is absolutely no reason to ban rc’s from schools when we are already banned in the first place by a state kaw that makes it a felony to be anywhere in the vicinity of a school. We do have a lawsuit challenging just about all the admendments to the registry so maybe they want to pre-emptively put a ban in place, but I doubt they are that clever. This is more feel good legislation and for those into the political side of things, expect some grandstanding.
Wow. The funny thing is that most recently, I’ve seen story after story regarding teachers being arrested for molesting students. It’s mind boggling. I’ve probably seen 5-6 stories like this within the last month? Yet, murderers, gang bangers, drug dealers, teachers, pristitutes and wife beaters can still visit schools?
Someone should show these morons the amount of teachers having sex with students. Have these people been living under a rock? How narrow minded can a public servant be?
