Klein and Bloomy Keep Dreaming!

Chancellor Klein and Mayor Bloomberg live in a dreamworld in New York City. Both gentlemen are beaming with pride as they talk about the fact that violent crime has gone down in our public schools. While this may be very true, we are not getting the full story and here is why:
Both men conveniently don't mention about non-violent crime. We have far too many disruptive students in our classes. Why? The parent(s) will not sign for a special education evaluation. Therefore, the child is allowed to continue disrupting classes.
Not all the brats attending city schools are violent. We have children out there who constantly disrupt classes by talking, screaming, throwing objects, running around the halls and classrooms to make it virtually impossible for the teacher to conduct a class.
Gentlemen, why are you so hesitant in bringing back the 600 school concept for unruly children?
